Lovech form and stats

Lovech have collected 10 points from their Vtora Liga home games so far after 3-1-0. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Lovech after consecutive victories at their own ground.

The Lovech supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host FK Minyor Pernik in Vtora Liga and win 5-1. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at Lokomotiv Sofia 1929.

As mentioned above, Lovech "killed" FK Minyor Pernik in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

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 Lovech have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found one game) they have won one time, drawn zero and lost zero.

FK Minyor Pernik form and stats

The visitors are W1-D1-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Vtora Liga. With two straight losses from their last two away games, FK Minyor Pernik are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

There might be some fixture complaints from Minyor as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Vtora Liga match against Lovech (1-5).

As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Lovech was particularly ugly (1-5). The humiliation is still top of mind.

Minyor are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, zero draws and one defeat. From a total of one match.

Minyor have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 5 league away games 5 goals have been scored. For Minyor, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head

Lovech - FK Minyor Pernik 5-1 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season.
