Alken form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Alken so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 1-0-5 (win-draw-lose). Bitter travels for Alken as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Hechtel match.

This match can not go any worse than the previous one, the home defeat versus KFC Eksel with 0-2 on the scoreboard.

A 1-3 defeat away at Achel before that.

The attacking power of Alken when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 6 league matches away. The Alken manager has some worries about the defense as 14 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Herk-Alken H2H statistics last five meetings regardless of arena: Herk two wins, Alken one win, two draws. three of these five matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
