How have Fleetwood performed against Oldham?
Fleetwood Town have lost only one of their last seven Football League meetings with Oldham Athletic, winning two and drawing four. That solitary defeat was a 2-0 loss back in April 2017. More recently, the two sides played out a 1-1 draw in League Two on 23rd August 2025, and repeated that scoreline on 14th February 2026. Oldham's last victory at Fleetwood's ground came in their first ever Football League visit in January 2015, a 2-0 win. Since then, they are winless in four trips to Highbury Stadium, drawing three and losing one.
What is the current form of both teams?
Fleetwood's season began with a 4-0 League Two victory over Shrewsbury Town and a 1-0 win against Chesterfield in the League Cup. They followed that with a 0-0 draw against Gillingham and a 1-0 league win at Chesterfield. Their most recent outing was a 2-2 draw with Grimsby Town in all competitions. Oldham Athletic, positioned 6th with 6 points, started with a 3-0 win over Swindon Town and a 2-0 victory against Port Vale in League Two. They also recorded a heavy 4-0 friendly win over Sheffield Wednesday. Their setbacks include a 2-1 League Cup loss to Colchester United and a 2-0 defeat to Stoke City.
What challenges does Oldham's away form present?
Oldham Athletic arrive at Highbury Stadium carrying a significant burden of poor away form. They have lost each of their last four away league games. The last time they suffered a longer losing streak on the road in the top four tiers was back in October 2013, when they lost six consecutive matches. This presents a clear opportunity for Fleetwood to extend their positive run in this fixture, especially given their own resilience at home, even if it often results in a share of the points.

Where do both teams stand in the early season?
The early League Two table shows a close contest. Oldham Athletic's six points from their opening games places them sixth, one point and one place above Fleetwood Town. The Cod Army have scored three goals in the league so far, while Oldham have found the net six times. With the season still young, every point is vital. Fleetwood will be looking to convert one of their characteristic home draws into a victory to close the gap at the top. Their next fixture is a key part of the schedule you can view on our fixtures list. The team's defensive record of two goals conceded in three games provides a solid foundation to build upon.
