Nakumatt form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Nakumatt, who have the most conceded goals (81) in Premier League, so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 2-1-12 (win-draw-lose). With the Nakumatt losing streak of six defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

The visitors have scored 14 goals from 15 away games, an average of less than one per game. Nakumatt have conceded 36 goals in these games.
