Drina Zvornik form and stats

It's not happening yet for Drina Zvornik on their First League: RS travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Zvornik's last three away games as they have all been lost.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a First League: RS home defeat versus Krupa na Vrbasu with 0-1 on the scoreboard.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Ljubic Prnjavor wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.

Zvornik are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 1 goal from 3 away games. The Zvornik manager C. Blagojević has some worries about the defense as 7 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head
