Leixões form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Leixões so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-5 (win-draw-lose). Three consecutive losses in away matches means Leixões are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

Leixões have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 209 minutes ago. Kiki was the goal scorer.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Leixões, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-1 versus Casa Pia (placed 2nd).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Nacional wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Leixões as they have only managed to score 6 times from 8 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Leixões have seen the ball go into their own net 10 times on the road.
