Gnistan form and stats

Gnistan's struggle is real here at Mustapekka Areena with only 5 points collected from 7 Ykkonen games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-2-4. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Gnistan with their five defeats in a row. Not since the MuSa game, 25 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

In their previous game, the manager R. Duarte led his Gnistan to a defeat in the Ykkonen match away at EIF. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Mustapekka Areena.

Heartbreak before that as Gnistan lost 2-3 at PK-35's place.

There will be little rest for Gnistan after this match as they are travelling to MP for a Ykkonen game in only four days.

Gnistan have scored 4 league goals here from 7 matches, not a lot. Gnistan have conceded 9 in these home matches.
