Red Lions form and stats

The seven points Red Lions have gathered from their first three away trips in the Super League is impressive and could lead to great things if the form continues. Lions has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.

Lions play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 2-1 victory visiting Ntopwa (placed 5th). Preceding that game was the away victory against Azam Tigers with the score of 1-0.

The visiting Lions have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 4 goals from 3 games. It's not easy to score on Red Lions as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

Bullets-Red Lions H2H statistics last four meetings regardless of arena: Big Bullets four wins, Red Lions zero wins, zero draws. two of these four matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
