Spartak Varna form and stats

The story so far in the B PFG for Spartak Varna at their home stadium (Gradski Stadion) is 2 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Spartak Varna with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Lokomotiv G. Oryahovitsa game, 55 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

Spartak Varna are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 554 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by S. Ivanov).

In their previous game, the manager K. Georgiu led his Spartak Varna to a defeat in the B PFG match away at Chernomorets Balchik. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Gradski Stadion. Preceding that match was a defeat to Lovech (0-4).

The lack of attacking qualities in Spartak Varna means that they have only scored 2 goals in 6 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Spartak Varna have conceded 8 in these home matches.
