A goal in each half from Jack Stevens fired Oldham to a 2-0 home win against struggling Crawley at Boundary Park.
Stevens' double secured a third win in a row for the Latics and condemned Crawley to their 11th defeat on the road.
First Half Belonged To The Latics
Town arrived with the worst away record in League Two and showed little sign of improving that statistic in a first half that belonged to Oldham. Micky Mellon's men had scored early goals in their previous two games and, given the volume of chances they created, looked certain to do so again.
