Junior Sevan form and stats

Junior have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper Diogo Guilhermino Babo Figueiredo. It's been 288 minutes since they last conceded in Premier League.

Junior play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 1-0 victory visiting Noravank (placed 9th). Junior Sevan made it very difficult for themselves in their last game, Luiz Matheus receiving a red card in the 90th minute. The match was still a draw at this point. But even with this card, Junior Sevan won the match 1-0! The end of the last match, against Noravank, was very satisfying as B. Bissainte scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

A draw for Junior before that, at their own venue hosting Banants (0-0).

Goals are few and far between in Junior's away league games. Only 3 goals from 6 travels. As opposed to that, Junior have seen the ball go into their own net 6 times on the road.
