Taicheng form and stats

It's not happening yet for Taicheng on their Taiwan Football Premier League travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Taicheng, who have now gone 16 games without a victory. The Ming Chuan University game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.

Taicheng has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Ming Chuan University for a Taiwan Football Premier League game that ended a draw (1-1). A 1-3 defeat away at Taipower before that.

With the home team given a winning probability of about 80% by the bookmakers, any point(s) for the visitors would be a surprise. Checking earlier matches with similar odds with Taicheng as the away team, we found two results. Statistics from these were 0 away wins, 0 draws and 2 defeats. The outsiders lost 2 of these games by at least two goals.

It's early days yet, but Taicheng has scored 1 and conceded 9 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
