Vertykal form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Second Division ended in defeat. Last season Vertykal had these away match statistics: Played 12; won 6, drew 0 and lost 6. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Vertykal are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

The manager Leonid Zmushko was unhappy after their last game, a Second Division match played at their home ground. Vertykal suffered a 0-6 loss to Bumprom (placed 1st). Vertykal lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-6 beating and focus on this one.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against BC Maxline wasn't a success with a 1-8 loss.

Vertykal have the goal stats of 1-8 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last six meetings: three - zero - three (Zhlobin wins - draws - Vertykal wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two had two or less.
