Vittoriosa Stars form and stats

Vittoriosa Stars have only collected 1 point from their away games in the First Division, after 0-1-5 (6 played). Bitter travels for Vittoriosa Stars as they have lost five games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Marsa match.

Impressive finishing secured the home win 3-0 against Mtarfa in their previous game. Hooray; their first three points in the league after seven matches not winning. Vittoriosa Stars delivered their win in the match against Mtarfa already in the first half, and could slow the play down in the final 45 minutes to ensure the glorious victory. A solid performance!

A defeat, in the Fa Trophy away at Nadur, earlier.

Observe that 8 of this team's 10 latest league rounds have ended with three goals or more.

The attacking power of Vittoriosa when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 6 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the previous nine meetings featuring these two teams are: three wins for Fgura United, one draw and five wins for Vittoriosa Stars. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: five games.
