The visiting Sputnik side should be favourites in this visit to Volna, as the away team holds a 27 point advantage from their 22 league games this season.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Volna and Sputnik.
Volna form and stats
Volna, who have the most conceded goals (22) at home in Pershaya Liga, have played 11 Pershaya Liga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-3-5 (wins-draws-losses). Volna has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager V. Belenko and the players.
Volna are traveling soon after this match as the Pershaya Liga match at Slonim awaits in four days.
Volna have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Stadyen Valna with 20 goals in 11 league matches. Volna are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (22 from 11 played).
Sputnik form and stats
The away team, who have the fewest conceded goals (13) in Pershaya Liga, have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 7 wins, 3 draws and only 1 loss in the Pershaya Liga. Impressively, the visitors are on a five-match winning run which they hope continue versus Volna. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Sputnik, as they have won on their previous two travels.
Sputnik have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper Aleksandr Svirski. It's been 330 minutes since they last conceded in Pershaya Liga.
The schedule is very tough for Sputnik now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Pershaya Liga game at Smorgon is waiting in only four days.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Sputnik have scored 16 goals in 11 league games away. Sputnik's manager V. Levchyk has created a great defensive setup working very nicely in away games with only 4 conceded goals. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
