Competition: India I-League

Match begins: 11:00 (UTC)
Venue: Tilak Maidan Stadium (5000 seats)

With their 5 point edge in the league table, Churchill Brothers fans yearn to see their adored players get all points from this game hosting NEROCA.

Insights:
  • Churchill Brothers have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • NEROCA have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored.

These teams have little in common geographically as NEROCA have to travel 3600 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Churchill Brothers and NEROCA.

NEROCA form and stats

There's been little loot from NEROCA's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 7 away games in the I-League. NEROCA only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw.

Two away games in a row for NEROCA, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-3 versus Minerva Punjab.

Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Sreenidi Deccan.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of NEROCA when being an outsider away as they are today, we find 7 matches with the visitors losing 5 times, drawing 2 and winning 0 games.

The attacking power of NEROCA when travelling is not overwhelming with 4 goals scored from 7 league matches away. As opposed to that, NEROCA have seen the ball go into their own net 10 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

Churchill have won every one of the 5 most recent duels versus this opponent. Can they do it again?
