Slavia Sofia form and stats

No Parva Liga points yet away for Slavia Sofia, from their first 3 matches. It's looking increasingly bleak for Slavia Sofia who now has to deal with a five game losing streak. Cherno More was the last time a defeat was avoided. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Slavia's last three away games as they have all been lost.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Slavia, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-2 versus Arda (placed 3rd). A 0-2 loss hosting Beroe before that.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Slavia's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 3 matches. Slavia have conceded 6 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Montana zero wins, zero draws and Slavia Sofia ten victories. As for goals, seven matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three games had two or less.
