Struggling NEROCA will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying TRAU in the upcoming league round. It’s 10th vs 3rd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
NEROCA form and stats
2-0-2 (win-draw-lost) are the I-League numbers at home for NEROCA, who have the most conceded goals (21) in I-League, so far this season. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on NEROCA to get some points in this home game.
NEROCA lost their last game at Churchill Brothers (placed 5th) after a 1-4 scoreline. Prior to that, an away loss at Minerva Punjab.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the I-League game versus Arrows in only three days. This game is also played here at Khuman Lampak Main Stadium.
NEROCA have scored 3 league goals here from 4 matches, not a lot. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 7 goals have been conceded.
TRAU form and stats
The visitors are W2-D1-L3 on the road this term. That's in the I-League.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Gokulam (placed 4th) in their previous outing. The I-League match ended in a draw 1-1. Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Aizawl.
TRAU has another fixture away, a I-League game, against Aizawl in just three days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
