- Podbrezová have the most scored goals in the first half (7) in Fortuna Liga
- Zlaté Moravce have the fewest points (0) away in Fortuna Liga
It's no vacation for neither Podbrezová nor Zlaté Moravce as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Podbrezová form and stats
Seven points from three Fortuna Liga home games is a great start for Podbrezová, who are hoping to build on that form here at ZELPO Aréna Podbrezová.
Podbrezová enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Liptovsky Mikulas's place. The match ended 5-2 with Cobnan (2), Bariš and Godál scoring. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
Before that, Podbrezová had a home game versus Banska Bystrica which ended with a victory 3-1.The manager Skuhravý will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Žilina in only three days.

Zlaté Moravce form and stats
The visitors, who have the fewest points (0) away in Fortuna Liga, are W0-D0-L4 on the road this term. That's in the Fortuna Liga.
Zlaté Moravce are travelling again after losing away to Banska Bystrica in their previous match (2-4). An insane fixture with heaps of goals last time out for Moravce, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that match, will this match be as full of joy? Brenkus has bagged at least one goal for the away side three games in a row. The competence!
Ahead of that, the Slovakia Cup win away at Dunajska Luzna.
After this away game Zlaté Moravce return home for a Fortuna Liga game against Trenčín. That game is only four sleeps after this.
Moravce are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 4 away games. Zlaté Moravce have conceded 10 goals in these games.
