Velez form and stats

The visitors' first away game ended a defeat. Last season Velez had these away match statistics: Played 14; won 10, drew 2 and lost 2.

Two away games in a row for Velez, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Zrinjski in the Premier Liga. A 1-3 loss hosting Mladost Doboj Kakanj before that.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Velez playing away, we found one game. Results were 0 away wins, 1 draw and 0 home wins.
