Recent games have demonstrated that Crawley Town is having difficulties in scoring goals, as they have recorded a low number of goals and a high number of matches where they failed to score. This suggests that their attacking play needs to be improved, with a focus on creating more quality chances.

The team does not shine in attack, with a scoring average of 0.94 goals per game. With these statistics against it, it can hardly count on a good result in the next away game.

Best goalscorer from Crawley Town

There are always individualities that stand out in a squad and in the team's attack Will Swan has held that position so far in the competition. Serving Crawley Town with 3 goals this season, the Attacker has been a key player in winning triumphs.
