Marsa form and stats

Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 13 away games in a row. Marsa are desperate to end a 25-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the San Gwann fixture.

In total they scored 17 and conceded 86 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 0 - drew 1 and lost 12 with 10/43 goals scored/conceded.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last five meetings: two - two - one (George's wins - draws - Marsa wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two had two or less.
