Asenovets form and stats

With 2 wins, 2 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Asenovets, who have the fewest points (8) at home in 3. League Southeast, are certainly not brimming with confidence. All in all it has been a very rough period for Asenovets who hasn’t won a game in their last 13 attempts. Their previous win was against Levski Karlovo. Game days at Stadion Shipka have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Asenovets as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

In their previous game, led his Asenovets to a defeat in the 3. League Southeast match away at Rozova dolina. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadion Shipka. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Minyor Radnevo (0-3).

Asenovets are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home, having created 14 goals in 12 matches. Asenovets are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (27 from 12 played).

League Southeast, only has 0 wins to counter their 12 defeats and 0 draws. Sadovo are still without points from their away games. 12 games, 12 defeats.

The manager was unhappy after their last game, a 3. League Southeast match played at their home ground Stadion Shipka. Sadovo suffered a 0-2 loss to Zagorets. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Haskovo 1957 wasn't a success with a 0-13 loss.
