After three games we know a little more about the qualities of Astana and Atyrau in this fresh Premier League season. Read our match preview!
- Atyrau is in the worst form (0-0-3)
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Premier League match only four days ago. That game was an away game at Tobol, so at least Astana are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
Atyrau play their home games on grass, while this game is played on artifical turf. Recent stats for Atyrau when playing on artifical turf are 2 wins, 1 draw and 8 defeats from eleven matches. They have scored 8 goals and conceded 19 times in these games.
It's quite the trip for Atyrau when visiting Astana as the cities are 2000 kilometers apart.
Astana form and stats
Astana have only played one Premier League game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 5 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats from 10 matches.
Astana shared the glory with Tobol in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1. Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Kaspiy.
The manager A. Tikhonov will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Ordabasy in only four days.
Early season league goal statistics from Astana's 1 home game: 2 goals, 0 conceded.
Atyrau form and stats
The visitors are W0-D0-L1 on the road this term. That's in the Premier League. With the Atyrau losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. Atyrau has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Premier League home defeat versus Aktobe with 1-3 on the scoreboard. A 0-1 defeat away at Akzhayik before that.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Zhetysu in just four days.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Atyrau has managed 0 goals and let in 1 from 1 match.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Astana ten wins, zero draws and Atyrau zero victories. As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.Astana missing players
