Lineups

Squad Ratings

The overall squad rating for Oldham is 6.87, compared to 6.77 for Harrogate Town. This metric is derived from each player's average match rating across all league appearances this season — anything above 7.00 is considered strong, while below 6.50 signals inconsistency. Oldham's highest-rated starter is Matthew Hudson (7.18), while Harrogate Town's best-rated player is Henry Gray (7.03).

Attacking Output

The starting XI of Oldham have contributed 29 goals and 27 assists this season, led by Mike Fondop (8G). Harrogate Town's starters account for 20 goals and 19 assists, spearheaded by Jack Muldoon (5G). Goals reflect clinical finishing and chance creation, while assists highlight the ability to unlock defences through through-balls, crosses, and set pieces.

Defensive Solidity

Oldham deploy 4 defenders rated 6.86 on average, against Harrogate Town's 4-man backline averaging 6.75. Higher defensive ratings suggest better positional awareness, fewer individual errors, and a greater likelihood of keeping clean sheets. The rating accounts for tackles won, interceptions, aerial duels, and blocks throughout the season.

Midfield Control

Oldham field 4 midfielders averaging 6.92, versus Harrogate Town's 5 rated 6.78. Midfield ratings reflect passing accuracy, interceptions, key passes, and overall control of possession — the team that dominates midfield typically dictates the tempo and territory of the match.

Forward Threat

Oldham start 2 forward(s) averaging 6.62, compared to 1 for Harrogate Town averaging 6.55. Forward ratings capture shot accuracy, movement off the ball, dribbling success, and involvement in build-up play — they indicate who carries the greater goal threat on the day.

Passing & Build-Up

Passing accuracy averages 64% for Oldham and 67% for Harrogate Town. Higher passing accuracy generally indicates a possession-based style with patient build-up through the thirds, while lower figures may suggest a more direct, counter-attacking approach with long balls and quick transitions.

Discipline

Oldham's starters have collected 39 yellow cards this season, compared to 42 for Harrogate Town. Yellow cards reflect how aggressively a team presses and tackles — a high count may indicate a physical, high-pressing style but also risks suspensions and late free-kicks in dangerous areas.

Age & Experience

The average age of Oldham's starting XI is 28.3 (youngest: Will Sutton (23), oldest: Tom Pett (34)), while Harrogate Town average 24.3 (youngest: Henry Gray (20), oldest: Jack Muldoon (36)). Younger squads typically offer pace, energy, and pressing intensity, while experienced lineups bring composure, game management, and the ability to handle high-pressure moments.

Squad Depth

Oldham's starters average 35 league appearances each, versus 27 for Harrogate Town. High appearance counts indicate an established, well-drilled unit that the manager trusts week in and week out. Lower figures may suggest rotation, injuries, or emerging players still earning their place in the team.
