Bromley face a key London derby test on Monday night after shipping 12 goals in their last two League One games. The fixture against AFC Wimbledon at Hayes Lane is the fifth competitive meeting between the sides, with each club winning two of the previous four encounters over the past two seasons.
Andy Woodman's side have lost their last three league matches, a run that has left them 21st in the table with just four points from five games. The most recent of those defeats was a 2-0 home loss to this Monday's opponents, AFC Wimbledon, just five days ago. Jayden Stockley opened the scoring for the Dons in the eighth minute before Myles Hippolyte sealed the win in the 67th. That result followed a 5-0 thrashing by Leyton Orient and a 7-2 defeat away to Sheffield Wednesday. The 12 goals conceded in those two matches alone equals the total they let in across their previous 14 league fixtures. Bromley have never lost three consecutive matches in the EFL before.
The visitors arrive with their own mixed record in capital clashes. AFC Wimbledon have lost six of their last eight Football League London derbies and failed to score in four of those eight games. Their form against newly promoted teams on the road has seen a recent uptick, however, with back-to-back away wins against such opposition after losing nine of the 10 prior matches between October 2021 and August 2025.
Historical data provided by Opta shows the tight nature of this rivalry. With two wins apiece from the four previous meetings, there is little to separate the teams. For Bromley, the primary concern is a defensive unit that has been breached with alarming frequency. The club's goal difference now stands at minus 11, having scored just four times while conceding 15.
Monday's derby offers an immediate chance for redemption before a daunting follow-up fixture. Bromley host second-placed Huddersfield Town at Hayes Lane on Saturday, September 19th. The full schedule of upcoming challenges is available on our fixtures list. Ending the current losing streak is the urgent priority for Woodman and his squad as they look to climb away from the lower reaches of League One.
