Zejtun Corinthians form and stats

Disaster struck Zejtun Corinthians last season as they could not defend their status as a Premier League team. With 11 defeats from 23 games, and only 6 wins, relegation could not be avoided. Corinthians are hopeful of bouncing straight back up, but need to improve upon their home record from last season of W3 D3 L5.

With the first game of the season soon underway, it's time to look at the results from the Zejtun Corinthians friendly games in pre-season: Corinthians played three friendlies, won 0, drew 1 and lost 2. If you are really into statistics you might appreciate knowing that Zejtun Corinthians scored 5 goals and conceded 8 in these three games.

Head 2 Head
