PKKU form and stats

There's been little loot from PKKU's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 8 away games in the Kakkonen. PKKU only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw.

Home advantage was not enough for PKKU in their previous game, as they lost their Kakkonen-match, hosting PEPO, 2-5. Prior to that result PKKU won their away game at EPS. The scoreline was 3-0.

As you can tell from the result, the match against PEPO was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?

PKKU have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 8 league away games 9 goals have been scored. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. PKKU have conceded 14 goals in these games.
