Dornbirn form and stats
With 1 Erste Liga win, 3 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, Dornbirn, who have the fewest scored goals (7) at home in Erste Liga, are certainly not brimming with confidence. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Dornbirn with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Kapfenberger SV game, 37 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Dornbirn, their manager M. Mader and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.
Dornbirn faced defeat in their previous match, away at Rapid Wien II (2-3). Heartbreak before that as Dornbirn lost 2-3 at Rapid Wien II's place.
