Botev Ihtiman form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Botev Ihtiman so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 2-4-6 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Ihtiman's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Botev Ihtiman's last game was the home draw against Pirin Gotse Delchev (0-0).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Septemvri Sofia II wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Kyustendil in just three days.

The attacking power of Ihtiman when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored from 12 league matches away. Botev Ihtiman's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 18 goals from these trips. It's worth mentioning that 10 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
