Kazincbarcika form and stats

Kazincbarcika's struggle is real here at Pete András Stadion with only 4 points collected from 7 Merkantil Bank Liga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-1-5. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Kazincbarcika with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Szentlőrinc SE game, 35 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Three consecutive losses here at Pete András Stadion is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

Kazincbarcika haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 446 minutes ago. L. Toth scored that one.

Kazincbarcika are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-3 away versus Siófok. Before that game, the home loss against Debrecen with the scoreline 0-3.

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

The manager Z. Vitelki will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Gyirmót in only three days.

The lack of attacking qualities in Kazincbarcika means that they have only scored 3 goals in 7 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Kazincbarcika have conceded 14 goals in these home games, a significant number.

Impressive finishing secured the home win 1-0 against Gyirmót in their previous game. That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus Győri ETO in the Merkantil Bank Liga.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found four similar matches played by Szolnoki MÁV in our archives, and the results are: one win for Szolnoki MÁV, one draw and two defeats.
