Nykøbing form and stats

Playing away, Nykøbing have won 1 game, drawn 1 and suffered 3 defeats in the First Division this season. Nykøbing seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

The supporters enjoyed Nykøbing's previous game versus FC Helsingør (placed 1st), a First Division 3-0 win played at home.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Horsens wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Nykøbing playing away and similar expectations, we found ten relevant matches. Results were two Nykøbing wins, three draws and five defeats.

Nykøbing have another fixture away from home in just three nights, a Landspokal Cup fixture versus Kolding IF. A hard fixture list for the visitors!

Nykøbing have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 5 league away games 5 goals have been scored. In the opposite end, Nykøbing have conceded 8 goals in their away games.
