Etar form and stats

7 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Etar playing as the away team in the Vtora Liga this season. It's looking increasingly bleak for Etar who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Sportist Svoge was the last time a defeat was avoided.

Etar might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Spartak Varna proved too strong as Etar slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Stadion Ivailo. Etar were so close to getting something from the game against Spartak Varna, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal three minutes into overtime.

A 1-3 defeat away at Septemvri Sofia before that.

After this away game Etar return home for a Vtora Liga game against Maritsa Plovdiv. That game is only four sleeps after this.
