Devolli form and stats

The story so far in the 1st Division for Devolli at their home stadium is 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Devolli with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Shënkolli game, 48 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Devolli, their manager F. Fetollari and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

Devolli lost their last game at Oriku (placed 5th) after a 1-3 scoreline. Heartbreak before that as Devolli lost 3-4 at Pogradeci's place.

Devolli have proved capable of finding the net in their games here with 8 goals in 5 league matches. Devolli have conceded 6 in these home matches.
