Chayka Zelva form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Second Division this season. Chayka Zelva, who have the most conceded goals (90) in Second Division, have only managed 0 wins, 1 draw and 8 losses from their games here at Stadyen Kolas. All in all it has been a very rough period for Chayka who hasn’t won a league-game in their last 19 attempts. Their previous win was against Molodechno-DYuSSh 4, 168 days ago. With nine home Second Division games in a row without a win, the Chayka Zelva fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Molodechno-DYuSSh 4 game long ago, can be stopped today.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Chayka here at Stadyen Kolas in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (8 from 9 games). Defensively there's plenty of potential for improvement as Chayka Zelva have allowed the opposition to score 24 goals here at Stadyen Kolas.
