Etar aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 197 league minutes without a goal. Borukov was the last player to find the net.

As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Ludogorets was particularly ugly (0-5). The humiliation is still top of mind.

A 0-1 loss hosting Slavia Sofia before that.

{0 goals} so far away for Etar, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 5. All from 1 league match away.
