LaPa form and stats

LaPa have only collected 1 point from their away games in the Kakkonen, after 0-1-9 (10 played). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved LaPa have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road.

Partanen was the last player to score for the away team. LaPa haven't scored a league goal in the last 215 minutes.

The manager Karhu was unhappy after their last game, played at their home ground. LaPa suffered a 0-6 loss to Reipas (placed 3rd). As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Reipas was particularly ugly (0-6). The humiliation is still top of mind.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Kiffen wasn't a success with a 0-5 loss.

The visitors come into this game as huge outsiders. This role is not totally unknown to them, as they have played 15 away matches before with similar winning odds. These games have ended with 3 wins, 1 draw and 11 defeats. 11 games were lost by at least two goals margin.

Take note that 15 of this team's 16 most recent league rounds have ended with at least three goals.

LaPa are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 5 goals from 10 away games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. LaPa can't defend away. 48 goals have been scored by the opposition in 10 matches, an average of more than three per game.
