Hyderabad form and stats

There's been little loot from Hyderabad's travels as they have only collected 0 points from 6 away games in the Indian Super League. Hyderabad, who have the most conceded goals (32) in Indian Super League, only have 0 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 0 draws. Hyderabad are still without points from their Indian Super League away games. 6 games, 6 defeats. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Hyderabad, who have now gone eleven games without a victory. The Kerala Blasters game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. Bitter travels for Hyderabad as they have lost six games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Atlético de Kolkata match.

There were no winners in Hyderabad's previous match, a Indian Super League home game that ended 1-1 vs Mumbai City (placed 5th). A 1-2 loss hosting Odisha FC before that.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Hyderabad played away with similar odds. This revealed one game. The visitors overcame the odds to win 0 times, 0 were draws and the home team won as expected 1 time.

Hyderabad are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 6 away goals from 6 games (in the league). There are big problems for the Hyderabad defense as they have conceded 20 goals in 6 away games.

Head 2 Head

The teams have played each other before this season, with the result Hyderabad - Bengaluru 1-1 entered in the official records.
