Athlone Town – Wexford

In 4 meetings between Athlone Town and Wexford, Athlone Town have been the more successful side, winning 1 to 1 with 2 draws along the way. The record leans firmly in one direction, but in a rivalry like this one head-to-head form rarely tells the full story once the game kicks off. The numbers suggest an entertaining watch: 2.8 goals per match on average, 50% of encounters going beyond two and a half, and both teams scoring in 50% of them. The pattern has been fairly consistent across the sample above. Where the game is played has mattered. Athlone Town hold 0-2-0 as hosts in this fixture, and Wexford show 1-0-1 at home, underlining how much home comfort can tilt an otherwise close rivalry one way or the other. Current form reads clearly enough: Athlone Town have 2 wins in their last 5, scoring 1.8 each time out, and Wexford have 1 from 5, netting 2 on average. Momentum like that can quickly override what the historical numbers suggest. Broken down, that leaves Athlone Town winning around 25% of the time, 50% ending level and Wexford on about 25%. The balance gives one side the edge, but enough draws and surprises to keep it interesting. Most recently, on 21.08.2026, Wexford and Athlone Town served up a 0–2 result, the newest entry in this head-to-head. Until the sides are paired again, that match remains the latest word in a long-running rivalry.
