VPS form and stats

There's been little loot from VPS's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 11 away games in the Veikkausliiga. VPS only have 0 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 5 draws. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved VPS have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone eleven consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Inter Turku game.

It might be tough going out on the road again for VPS, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-5 versus KuPS. A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Mariehamn.

The attacking power of VPS when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored from 11 league matches away. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as VPS have conceded 17 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
