Paide U21 form and stats

Paide U21's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Paide U21 collect 19 points from their 8 away matches in the Esiliiga A. 6 victories and 1 draw have created these points (and only 1 defeat). Long winning streaks away are a rare occurrence in football, which only makes Paide's record of five away victories in a row even more impressive. They last lost points away in the Maardu game.

Paide play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 4-0 victory visiting Tammeka II (placed 9th). As you can tell from the results above, Paide was very dominant against Tammeka II, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 4-0 (!) with K. Piht and K. Palumets (2) providing the goals.

A 2-5 loss hosting Maardu before that.

Today's guests are confident travelers having scored 21 goals in 8 league games away this season. It's not easy to score on Paide U21 as they have only conceded 6 goals from these away games.
