Minai form and stats

0 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Minai playing as the away team in the Premier League this season. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Minai have lost on their last two travels.

Minai are travelling again after losing away to Shakhtar Donetsk in their previous match (1-5). A 0-3 defeat away at Oleksandria before that.

As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Shakhtar Donetsk was particularly ugly (1-5). The humiliation is still top of mind.

The visitors have scored 4 goals from 5 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Minai have conceded 12 goals in these games.

The Ukrainian Premier League is the highest division of football in Ukraine. It was created in 1991 as Ukraine declared independence from the Soviet Union. Twelve teams play each other twice in a 22 match regular season to create a league table. The table then splits in half resulting in a Championship round and a Relegation round, each playing ten more fixtures.
