Hvidovre form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Pro Ventilation Arena as Hvidovre have scored 17 goals to get 21 points from 9 games. The overall stats in the First Division are 6-3-0 (wins-draws-losses). Nine out of nine points from the last three home games for Hvidovre, and the home supporters are ready to scream their lungs out to keep the winning streak alive.

Hvidovre's previous game was a First Division match also played at home, ending 5-1 versus Fredericia (placed 4th). The home side are looking to build on that result. As mentioned above, Hvidovre "killed" Fredericia in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Hobro.

The manager P. Frandsen will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to SønderjyskE in only three days.
