Budućnost form and stats

Budućnost's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Budućnost, who have the most scored goals (26) in First League, collect 12 points from their 6 away matches in the First League. 4 victories and 0 draws have created these points (and only 2 defeats). Things are running smoothly for Budućnost who hasn't tasted defeat in their last eleven matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Mladost Ljeskopolje. Long winning streaks away are a rare occurrence in football, which only makes Budućnost's record of four away victories in a row even more impressive. They last lost points away in the Mladost Ljeskopolje game.

D. Zarubica, D. Božović and M. Đuričković (2) scored in Budućnost's previous match, the home game against Rudar that ended 4-2. Before that, Budućnost secured a home win against Petrovac with the score 2-1.

A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Budućnost, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?
