Győri ETO form and stats

Győri ETO have collected 13 points from their Merkantil Bank Liga home games so far after 4-1-6. With Győri having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager Timar.

Győri ETO's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-3 versus Szombathelyi Haladás (placed 5th). The first loss after going undefeated through three league matches. The penalty miss from Varga in the defeat against Szombathelyi Haladás was a source of irritation for some fans, but these things happen.

Before that, Győri played out a draw 1-1 when visiting Szeged 2011.

This is expected to be a close game, with Győri ETO perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Győri ETO as a small favourite), we find 6 games. Győri ETO has won 4 of these, drawn 0 and lost 2.

Low-scoring affair? Looking at this club's last 18 league matches, 14 have contained two goals or less.

Győri ETO are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 14 goals in 11 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. On the other hand, Győri have conceded 15 goals.
