Slovácko form and stats

As the visiting team in Fortuna Liga matches, Slovácko have produced an overall stat of 6-4-5 so far. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Slovácko's last three away games as they have all been lost.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Slovácko, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-3 versus Slavia Praha.

A home win before that, celebrating 3-1 vs Baník Ostrava.

A new game in only four days for Slovácko, the Fortuna Liga home match versus Hradec Králové. Busy days.

Slovácko are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 24 times in 15 away games so far. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Slovácko have seen the ball go into their own net 21 times on the road.
