Larne U20 form and stats

There's been little loot from Larne U20's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 11 away games in the Premiership Development League. Larne U20, who have the most conceded goals (78) in Premiership Development League, only have 2 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 2 draws. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Larne U20's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Larne U20 failed to get anything from their last game, a Premiership Development League home match vs Dungannon Swifts U20 (placed 4th) that ended with defeat 1-5. Prior to that match, a home win 4-2 against Warrenpoint Town U20.

As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Dungannon Swifts U20 was particularly ugly (1-5). The humiliation is still top of mind.

The visitors have scored 10 goals from 11 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. There are big problems for the Larne U20 defense as they have conceded 37 goals in 11 away games.
