Flamurtari form and stats

With 0 Superliga wins, 6 draws and 9 defeats from their home games, Flamurtari, who have the most conceded goals (34) at home in Superliga, are certainly not brimming with confidence. Flamurtari are slowly digging their own grave here at Stadiumi Flamurtari with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in 15 attempts. The last victory here came in the Kukesi match. It's trouble wherever Flamurtari are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

Flamurtari's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Partizani Tirana (placed 6th). Prior to that, an away loss at Kukesi.

The Flamurtari fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 16 in 15 matches. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Flamurtari with 34 goals conceded in these matches.

Luftëtari Gjirokastër form and stats

There's been little loot from Luftëtari Gjirokastër's travels as they have only collected 3 points from 15 away games in the Superliga. Luftëtari Gjirokastër, who have the most conceded goals (68) in Superliga, only have 0 wins to counter their 12 defeats and 3 draws. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Luftëtari Gjirokastër, who have now gone 14 games without a victory. The Skënderbeu Korçë game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Gjirokastër have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 15 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Tirana game.

Preceding that game, the 1-8 loss visiting Partizani Tirana's place.

Luftëtari Gjirokastër lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 1-5 beating and focus on this one.
