- Sudeva have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- NEROCA have the most conceded goals in the first half (11) in I-League
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Sudeva form and stats
The story so far in the I-League for Sudeva at their home stadium (Kalyani Stadium) is 1 win, 0 draws and 4 defeats. With Sudeva having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager C. Dorji.
A strong away win for Sudeva against Chennai City the last match, as W. Pauliankhum and S. Kima were on target. Preceding that match was a defeat to TRAU (2-3).
The match schedule is unforgiving for Sudeva as they have a new game in only four days, a I-League match thankfully also at home. Arrows are visiting.
Sudeva are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 5 goals in 5 games. On the other hand, Sudeva have conceded 7 goals.
NEROCA form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their I-League travels is 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats. With the NEROCA losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. With two straight losses from their last two away games, NEROCA are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
S. Singsit was the last player to score for the away team. NEROCA haven't scored a league goal in the last 378 minutes.
The manager G. Raikhan was unhappy after their last game, a I-League match played at their home ground Khuman Lampak Main Stadium. NEROCA suffered a 0-1 loss to Aizawl. Prior to that match, the NEROCA manager G. Raikhan faced defeat when travelling to Arrows and losing 0-3.
NEROCA has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 9 goals from 5 games. 5 goals have been conceded by NEROCA in these games.
