Legion Dynamo form and stats

6 victories, 4 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Legion Dynamo have to build on here in the FNL 2 - Group 1. Legion has won so many consecutive home games (five in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here. We remember; it was Dinamo Stavropol'.

The Legion Dynamo club members enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Rotor-2 and win 3-1.

Prior to that, an away loss at Makhachkala.

Legion Dynamo are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 15 goals in 13 games. It's worth mentioning that 8 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Legion are not conceding a lot of goals here in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 9 from 13 matches.

Rotor-2 form and stats

There's been little loot from Rotor-2's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 14 away games in the FNL 2 - Group 1. Rotor-2 only have 2 wins to counter their 10 defeats and 2 draws.

There might be some fixture complaints from Rotor-2 as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, 1-3 against Legion Dynamo.

Preceding that, the 1-3 home loss versus Biolog.

The visitors have scored 9 goals from 14 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. The Rotor-2 manager Zhdanov has some worries about the defense as 31 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

The previous H2H match ended Rotor-2 - Legion 1-0, earlier this season.
