SC Inkberrow - Bishop's Cleeve prediction 15 September 2026

SC Inkberrow vs Bishop's Cleeve prediction for Sep 15, 2026, in the Southern Division One. Based on data analysis of form, standings and odds, the draw is the most probable outcome with a 40% chance, while both teams hold a 30% win probability.

Team Form

SC Inkberrow's recent results show a downturn. In their last five matches, they have recorded two wins followed by three consecutive losses (W-W-L-L-L). The wins came at home against Bideford (3-2 on Apr 14) and Westbury United (2-1 on Feb 24), both in the Southern Division One. Since then, they suffered a 1-3 defeat away to Swindon Supermarine, a 1-2 FA Trophy home loss to Stratford Town, and a heavy 1-5 defeat at Portishead Town.

Bishop's Cleeve have failed to win any of their last five contests (L-D-D-L-D). Their last outing was a 0-1 home loss to Swindon Supermarine on Aug 14, before which they drew 0-0 at home against Worcester Raiders and 1-1 away in a friendly with Evesham United. A 1-3 home friendly loss to Forest Green Rovers and a 1-1 draw at Malvern Town complete the sequence. Both sides are struggling for consistency, which raises the likelihood of a stalemate.

Head-to-Head Record

There is no previous head‑to‑head record between SC Inkberrow and Bishop's Cleeve. The two sides have never faced each other in competitive action, so no historical trend can be used for this prediction.

League Table Positions

In the overall Southern Division One standings, Bishop's Cleeve sit 6th with 75 points from 41 matches (22 wins, 9 draws, 10 losses, 74 goals scored, 58 conceded). SC Inkberrow are 11th with 52 points (15 wins, 7 draws, 19 losses, 58 goals scored, 75 conceded). The gap in points and goal difference underlines Bishop's Cleeve's stronger season.

However, home and away splits level the field somewhat. SC Inkberrow rank 8th in the home table with 36 points from 21 games (11 wins, 3 draws, 7 losses, 39 goals for, 37 against). Bishop's Cleeve are 7th in the away table with 29 points from 20 outings (8 wins, 5 draws, 7 losses, 28 goals for, 36 against). The home advantage could partially offset the overall quality gap.

Win Probability: SC Inkberrow or Bishop's Cleeve?

We calculated win probabilities by starting with bookmaker odds (average inverse odds: 2.815 home, 2.34 draw, 2.89 away), normalising them to remove the overround, and then adjusting for recent form and standings.

The final probabilities are:

• SC Inkberrow win: 30%
• Draw: 40%
• Bishop's Cleeve win: 30%

The draw is the most likely single outcome because neither team has shown winning form of late – Inkberrow are on a three‑match losing streak, and Bishop's Cleeve are winless in five. The overall league table favours Bishop's Cleeve, but home advantage and the lack of a head‑to‑head edge dampen that effect. Consequently, a share of the points appears the highest‑probability scenario, although either side could grind out a narrow victory.

Odds & Match Prediction

Bookmakers are aligned with the draw‑heavy outlook. The best available odds show a home win priced at 2.88 (one bookmaker) and 2.75 (another), the draw at 2.38 / 2.30, and an away win at 2.88 / 2.90. The shortest price is consistently on the draw, confirming that the betting market sees this as an evenly matched contest with a strong chance of a stalemate.

Match prediction: Based on the stats, the most realistic outcome is a draw. SC Inkberrow’s need to halt their losing run and Bishop’s Cleeve’s inability to convert draws into wins point towards a low‑scoring affair that could end all square. A 1‑1 scoreline would be a typical result given both teams’ recent scoring and conceding patterns.
