Arda form and stats

Arda have only played one Parva Liga game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 5 wins, 5 draws and 3 defeats from 13 matches.

Nothing to worry about in defence for Arda, as their goalkeeper Vasil Simeonov has completely shut out the opponents for 214 minutes in the Parva Liga.

Arda are returning here after visiting Botev Plovdiv and winning with a 2-0 scoreline. Tilev and N'Diaye scored the goal(s).

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Beroe in a game that was won 1-0.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Arda have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 6 games) they have won 4 times, drawn 2 and lost 0.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Arda as they are travelling to their away game against Lokomotiv Plovdiv in the Parva Liga. That match is four days after this one.

Early season league goal statistics from Arda's 1 home game: 1 goal, 0 conceded.
