Admira form and stats

Admira have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Admiral Bundesliga, after 1-4-3 (8 played). It's three draws from Admira's last three away games, a decent catch but one that could be so much better.

Admira aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 252 league minutes without a goal. S. Mustapha was the last player to find the net.

Admira might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Wolfsberger AC proved too strong as Admira slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at BSFZ-Arena. Goalkeeper Andreas Leitner got the top player rating of the team with 7.43/10. Leitner stopped the opponent with four saves.

A 0-0 draw at Salzburg's stadium before that.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Admira have scored 10 goals in 8 league games away. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Admira's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 15 goals from these trips. Admira has visited these top teams three times, and 2 of 3 has ended with 2 goals or more!
