Team form
Curzon Ashton
Curzon Ashton have been impressive in recent weeks. They've won four of their last five league matches, scoring 12 goals and conceding only 3 across that run. Their season average of 1.82 goals per game and 1.06 conceded per game reflects a well-balanced outfit. The hosts beat Lancaster City 2-0 away, defeated Ashton United 2-0 at home, and put three past Cleethorpes Town in an away win. Their only recent setback came against Guiseley AFC, a 1-2 home loss. The attacking threat is clear, and defensively they've tightened up considerably.
Ilkeston Town
Ilkeston Town are in freefall. Their last five matches have yielded just one goal while conceding 16—a 0.4 scoring rate against a 3.2 conceding average that tells the full story of their plight. They lost 0-3 to Cleethorpes Town at home, then 0-7 away at Bury in a particularly heavy defeat. A 0-2 loss to Quorn followed, and most recently they fell 1-3 away to Workington. Their only point in this sequence came from a 1-1 draw with Ashton United. With 13 points from 17 games, they're fighting relegation and have no recent momentum to draw on.
Head-to-head
The teams met last season on 15 November 2025, when Curzon Ashton won 1-0 away at Ilkeston. That result underlines the gulf in quality between these sides.
Key factors
Curzon Ashton's third-place position reflects genuine attacking quality and defensive solidity. They've scored 31 goals this season and conceded only 18—the best defensive record between these two teams by a considerable margin. Ilkeston's 13 goals scored against 37 conceded shows they are being picked apart regularly. The tactical mismatch is stark: Curzon Ashton will control possession and create chances; Ilkeston lack the defensive shape and attacking threat to trouble them. Home advantage at Tameside adds further weight to the hosts' case. Ilkeston's recent capitulations suggest they may struggle to stay compact under pressure.
Prediction
The form gap is decisive. Curzon Ashton have won four of five with a +9 goal difference in that span, while Ilkeston have lost four of five with a -14 goal difference. The season-long statistics amplify this: Curzon Ashton average nearly 1.8 goals per game and concede just over one; Ilkeston average 0.76 scored and 2.18 conceded. Tactically, the hosts should dominate the midfield and create clear opportunities. Ilkeston have shown little defensive resilience in recent weeks and will find it hard to generate attacking play. The hosts are strong favourites to win comfortably.
Curzon Ashton should win this match. They are the superior side in every measurable way—league position, recent form, goal difference, and defensive record all favour them decisively. Expect the hosts to control proceedings and convert their territorial advantage into goals. A comfortable home victory is the most likely outcome.
