PSPS Riau form and stats

PSPS Riau's first home game here ended with defeat. Last season their home statistics were 8 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat from eleven matches.

The PSPS Riau fans got no joy from their last match, a Liga 2 game also here: A 2-3 defeat against PSMS. Prior to that, an away loss at PSIR Rembang.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how PSPS Riau have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found three games) they have won 1 time, drawn 1 and lost 1.

Early season goal statistics from PSPS Riau's 1 home game: 2 goals, 3 conceded.

PSMS form and stats

Only one away game so far for PSMS and it resulted in three points. Last season the statistics for their away games were 2 victories, 3 draws and 12 losses from 17 travels.

It's the second away game in a row for PSMS, but there's smiles all around after the 3-2 victory versus PSPS Riau in the Liga 2 last time out. It was a Liga 1 defeat before that one as the away game against PSM wasn't a success with a 1-5 loss.

PSMS are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 1 draw and 0 defeats. From a total of two matches.

It's early days yet, but PSMS has scored 3 and conceded 2 goals from their travels so far (1 game).

Let's have a look at how PSMS performed last season in the Liga 1: They landed a 18th position in the league table after playing out 11 victories, 4 draws and 19 defeats. In total they scored 50 and conceded 70 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 3 and lost 12 with 16/39 goals scored/conceded.
