UCD form and stats

The story so far for UCD, who have the fewest scored goals (13) in Premier Division, at their home stadium (UCD Bowl) is 3 wins, 1 draw and 5 defeats. Problems are piling up for UCD as they are struggling in their away games as well, taking their total losing streak to a running total of seven games. This streak could be one for the history books. With UCD having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager C. O'Neill.

The UCD fans got no joy from their last match, a Premier Division game also here at UCD Bowl: A 0-1 defeat against Shamrock Rovers. Heartbreak before that as UCD lost 0-2 at Cork City's place.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for UCD as they are travelling to their away game against Waterford United in the Premier Division. That match is four days after this one.

The UCD fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium, the tally being 11 in 9 matches. 13 goals have been conceded.
