Dungannon Swifts form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Dungannon Swifts, who have the most conceded goals (26) in Premiership, so far with only 2 points returning home. The records show 0-2-4 (win-draw-lose). Three consecutive losses in away matches means Dungannon Swifts are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road. Recent form does not give Dungannon Swifts much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Warrenpoint Town will be a tough nut to crack.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Dungannon, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-4 versus Linfield (placed 2nd). The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-5 defeat against Ballymena United.

As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Linfield was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Carrick Rangers in just three days.

Goals are few and far between in Dungannon's away league games. Only 2 goals from 6 travels. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Dungannon's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 15 goals in 6 travels.
