Delta Force form and stats

Things could have gone better for Delta Force in their Npfl away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.

It's the second away game in a row for Delta Force, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Nasarawa United (placed 20th) in the Npfl last time out. A loss against Plateau United was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Delta Force as they have only managed to score 2 times from 3 away games in the league. Delta Force have conceded 7 goals in these games.
