Apolonia Fier form and stats

1 victory, 1 draw and 3 defeats. That’s what Apolonia Fier, who have the most conceded goals (20) in Superliga, have to build on here at Stadiumi Loni Papuçiu in the Superliga. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Apolonia with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Skënderbeu Korçë game, 21 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Apolonia are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Stadiumi Loni Papuçiu, having lost their two previous games here.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 280 minutes without scoring a league goal. M. Gjata was the last player to find the net.

Apolonia have scored 3 league goals here from 5 matches, not a lot. 7 goals have been conceded.
