Carrick Rangers form and stats
Carrick Rangers, who have the fewest clean sheets (1) in Premiership, are still without points from their Premiership away games. 4 games, 4 defeats. A depressing four defeats in a row for Carrick in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Linfield. Recent form does not give Carrick much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Coleraine will be a tough nut to crack.
Carrick lost away at Glentoran (0-6) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. A loss against Warrenpoint Town was the result prior to that, in a home game.
Carrick lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-6 beating and focus on this one.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Carrick Rangers's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 4 matches. Carrick can't defend away. 16 goals have been scored by the opposition in 4 matches, an average of more than three per game. You might want to look at the total goal statistics, which can be found on the Statistics tab above.
