El Zarqa form and stats

There's been little loot from El Zarqa's travels as they have only collected 3 points from 10 away games in the Second League: Group C. El Zarqa only have 0 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 3 draws. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved El Zarqa have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Gomhoreyat Shepin game.

El Zarqa won their last game, 3-1 versus Pioneers played at home.

A loss against El Hamam was the result prior to that, in a home game.

The visitors have scored 7 goals from 10 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. El Zarqa's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 18 goals from these trips. Zarqa has visited these top teams three times, and 2 of 3 has ended with 2 goals or more!
