Dessel Sport form and stats

In the previous season, Dessel Sport's league stats were 13 wins, 9 draws and 6 losses, leading to 3rd place in the First Amateur Division. From these 28 matches they scored 47 goals and conceded 35. Performing as the host team in the previous season Dessel Sport managed 9-4-1 (win-draw-lost) with 29 goals and 18 conceded.

This is expected to be a close game, with Dessel Sport perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Dessel Sport as a small favourite), we find 6 games. Dessel Sport has won 2 of these, drawn 2 and lost 2.

The manager Lunenburg will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to JS Fizoise in only four days.

With the first game of the season soon underway, it's time to look at the results from the Dessel Sport friendly games in pre-season: Dessel Sport played two friendlies, won 1, drew 1 and lost 0. If you are really into statistics you might appreciate knowing that Dessel scored 3 goals and conceded 2 in these two games.
