Kemi City form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Kemi City so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-8 (win-draw-lose). The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Kemi, who have now gone 13 games without a victory. The RoPS II game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.

The manager T. Könönen was unhappy after their last game, a Kakkonen match played at their home ground. Kemi suffered a 2-5 loss to JBK (placed 6th). An off the wall match with lots of goals last time out for Kemi City, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that match, will this match be as full of joy?

A 0-5 defeat away at JS Hercules before that.

The attacking power of Kemi when travelling is not overwhelming with 9 goals scored from 10 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Kemi are struggling defensively in their away games, having conceded 9 goals in these matches. It's worth mentioning that 14 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
