Leixões form and stats

Leixões have only collected 11 points from their away games after 2-5-9 (16 played). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Leixões have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 13 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Leca game. Sharing is caring, but Leixões are perhaps overdoing it with their four draws in a row.

Leixões's last game was the home draw against Paços de Ferreira (1-1). Before that, Leixões travelled to Sporting Covilhã and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.

The attacking power of Leixões when travelling is not overwhelming with 13 goals scored in 16 matches. 20 goals have been conceded by Leixões in these games.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the Leixões - Penafiel 2-1 played earlier this season. Penafiel-Leixões H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Penafiel 3 wins, Leixões 4 wins, 3 draws. 3 of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
