There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the FNL table so far. Here's the Akron - Veles latest:
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Akron form and stats
Perfect FNL season at home so far for Akron 2 wins from 2 appearances. Akron has won so many consecutive home games (six in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here. We remember; it was KAMAZ.
The fans are hoping that Akron will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the FNL game against Baltika (placed 2nd). Before that game, the home loss against Chertanovo with the scoreline 0-1.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Akron at home in the league. 3 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Veles form and stats
Veles are happy with their away performances in the FNL so far, having secured two victories and one draw from their first three travels. The away team travel with confidence. Not since the Pskov 747 game have they lost an away game, meaning Veles has taken points from nine away matches in a row.
Veles failed to get anything from their last game, a FNL home match vs Torpedo Moskva (placed 10th) that ended with defeat 0-5. Before that, Veles secured a home win against Baltika with the score 4-1.
Veles lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-5 beating and focus on this one.
A quick return to home after this game, as Veles are hosting Krasnodar II in the FNL only four days away.
Veles have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 3 league away games 4 goals have been scored. It's not easy to score on Veles as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.
