Insights:
  • Internacional Tirana have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored.
  • Gramshi have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded.

Both sides have had plentiful rest since their previous exertion in an official match. Let's look for an animated match!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Gramshi have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 12-3-7 (win-draw-loss) from 22 matches.

Internacional Tirana form and stats

Three 2nd Division home games done for Internacional Tirana, who are not happy collecting 3 points from these matches.

The fans are hoping that Internacional Tirana will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-6 away loss in the 2nd Division game against Veleçiku Koplik (placed 5th). As you see from the result above, Internacional Tirana suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Ada Velipojë.

The Internacional fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 3 in 3 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Internacional defense is not exactly impregnable. 5 goals conceded from 3 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
