Vitebsk form and stats

There's been little loot from Vitebsk's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 13 away games in the Vysshaya Liga. Vitebsk only have 2 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 2 draws. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Vitebsk are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

Vitebsk are looking to quickly end their 378 minutes long goal drought in the Vysshaya Liga.

Vitebsk lost away at Torpedo BelAZ (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.

The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-5 defeat against Shakhtyor.

Observe: 13 of the last 17 league matches featuring this side have ended with only one (or no) team scoring (Both Teams to Score NO in sports betting terms).

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Vitebsk as they have only managed to score 10 times from 13 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Vitebsk have conceded 19 goals in these away matches.
