Harold was very unlucky because after coming back to fight Harald Hardrada and the vikings. He met the Normans at a place later called Battle. Harold's men were very tired and exhausted and they definitely weren't ready to fight again so soon. There was also fewer soldiers ( because of the battle at Stamford Bridge ) and the Normans had 2000 men on horseback.
