Motherwell's 2025/2026 Premiership Campaign
Motherwell navigated the 2025/2026 Premiership season with a sturdy resolve, finishing fourth with 54 points from 33 matches. Their record speaks to a side that was tough to break down: 14 wins, 12 draws, and only 7 losses. They found the net 52 times while conceding 29, leaving them with a commendable goal difference of +23.
The campaign showcased a strong home form with 10 victories and 12 clean sheets, proving Fir Park a fortress for opponents to crack. Away from home, Motherwell still managed six wins and kept six clean sheets, highlighting their balanced approach. The defence clearly did their homework, conceding just 13 goals at home compared to 23 away.
Looking ahead, Motherwell will hope to build on this solid foundation. With a sturdy defence and a reliable attack, the challenge will be to convert more draws into wins and climb even higher in the table. Steady progress seems the sensible path forward.

Motherwell's Premiership Form in 2025/2026
Motherwell's campaign in the 2025/2026 Premiership has been a tale of consistency sprinkled with a few hiccups. With 16 wins, 13 draws, and 9 losses from 38 matches, points have been more often shared than lost outright, highlighting a tendency to settle for a stalemate rather than suffer defeat. Their defensive solidity shines at home, boasting 12 clean sheets and only 3 losses, while away form is a bit more variable with 6 losses.
Offensively, Motherwell have been reasonably prolific, netting 59 goals across all fixtures, balanced between home and away performances. Despite the absence of a notable winning streak, the team’s ability to avoid heavy defeats and grind out results has positioned them comfortably in 4th place with 54 points. It's a season of steady progress rather than dramatic peaks, offering a platform to build on going forward.

Motherwell's Home and Away Dynamics
Motherwell have been a fortress at home in the Premiership 2025/2026 campaign, notching up 10 wins and conceding just 13 goals in 19 matches. Their defensive solidity is underscored by 12 clean sheets on home turf, a tidy record that keeps the opposition frustrated more often than not.
On the road, the Steelmen's form dips slightly, with six wins and six losses from 14 games. They’ve conceded 23 goals away, nearly double their home tally, and kept just six clean sheets. This contrast suggests Motherwell are a tougher nut to crack at Fir Park, relying on a robust defence and sharper attacking edge, while their away performances are more open and less consistent.
