Slavia form and stats

There's been little loot from Slavia's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 10 away games in the Vysshaya Liga. Slavia only have 2 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 2 draws.

Slavia's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Ruh Brest that finished 1-1. As mentioned above, Slavia drew the match against Ruh Brest. Manager M. Martsinovich brought on Emmanuel Romess Ovono to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked.

A 1-2 defeat away at Slutsk before that.

Slavia have scored 11 goals on their travels this season, from 10 away games in the league. The Slavia manager M. Martsinovich has some worries about the defense as 20 goals have been conceded in these travels.
