Vejle form and stats

It's not happening yet for Vejle on their Superliga travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? Vejle seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

The manager C. Falch was unhappy after their last game, a Superliga match played at their home ground Vejle Stadion. Vejle suffered a 0-1 loss to AaB (placed 5th). Goalkeeper Alexander Brunst got the top player rating of the team with 7.7/10. Brunst stopped the opponent with six saves. Vejle goalkeeper Alexander Brunst had a great day against AaB, but despite making six saves the loss could not be avoided.

A 1-4 defeat away at Midtjylland before that.

Vejle have the goal stats of 1-5 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
