6 victories, 1 draw and 6 defeats. That’s what Siófok, who have the fewest clean sheets (3) in Merkantil Bank Liga, have to build on here at Révész Géza utcai stadion in the Merkantil Bank Liga. It's trouble wherever Siófok are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

Siófok lost their last game at Vasas (placed 1st) after a 0-1 scoreline. Ahead of that match, Siófok lost 2-3 at home to Szeged 2011.

The defeat against Vasas was especially painful as the deciding goal against was scored four minutes into stoppage time (by Z. Berecz).
