Sutjeska form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Stadion Kraj Bistrice as Sutjeska has scored 22 goals to get 29 points from 13 games. The overall stats are 9-2-2 (wins-draws-losses). Sutjeska has a nice streak going on as they have played 14 consecutive games without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Petrovac defeat.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Sutjeska as they are travelling to their away game against Mornar in the First League. That match is four days after this one.

Sutjeska have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Stadion Kraj Bistrice with 22 goals in 13 matches. From these home matches, Sutjeska have conceded only 9 goals.
