Kwai Tsing form and stats
1 win, 0 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Kwai Tsing playing as the away team in the First Division this season. Kwai Tsing are generally in trouble as the list of consecutive losses is growing into an ugly monster. Regardless of home/away, the visitors have now lost seven in a row. It's been 8 weeks since they last avoided defeat. (The Wong Tai Sin game.)
Kwai Tsing might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Hoi King proved too strong as Kwai Tsing slumped to a 2-4 defeat in front of their own fans at Tsing Yi Northeast Park. A loony fixture with lots of goals last time out for Tsing, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that fixture, will this match be as exciting?
Preceding that, the 1-7 home loss versus South China.Observe that 9 of this side's 11 most recent league matches have ended with three goals or more.
Kwai Tsing can't defend away. 17 goals have been scored by the opposition in 5 matches, an average of more than three per game. You might want to look at the total goal statistics, which can be found on the Statistics tab above.
