Kazincbarcika form and stats

Kazincbarcika's struggle is real here at Ajkai Városi Sportcentrum with only 5 points collected from 10 Merkantil Bank Liga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-2-7. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Kazincbarcika to get some points in this home game. The Kazincbarcika manager Z. Vitelki might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

The Kazincbarcika crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-2 to Vasas here at Ajkai Városi Sportcentrum in a Merkantil Bank Liga match. Preceding that match was a defeat to Szeged 2011 (0-1).

Heartbreak for Kazincbarcika in their last match as Vasas's K. Otigba scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

The lack of attacking qualities in Kazincbarcika means that they have only scored 5 goals in 10 league home games, less than half a goal per match. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Kazincbarcika defense is not exactly impregnable. 18 goals conceded from 10 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
