FK Minyor Pernik form and stats

FK Minyor Pernik have only collected 4 points from their away games in the Vtora Liga, after 1-1-4 (6 played). It's a growing despair in Minyor as they have recorded three consecutive losses. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on Y. Vasev, the Minyor manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

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 OFK Pirin (2-3).

Minyor were so close to getting something from the game against OFK Pirin, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal six minutes into overtime.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Minyor have scored 7 goals in 6 league games away. The Minyor manager Y. Vasev has some worries about the defense as 14 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last nine meetings): Strumska won one game, three matches ended with a draw and FK Minyor Pernik has five wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: two / seven
