Chertanovo form and stats

With 3 FNL wins, 3 draws and 11 defeats from their home games, Chertanovo are certainly not brimming with confidence. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in ten attempts. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Chertanovo, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Chertanovo's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Baltika (placed 6th). Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Krasnodar II (0-1).

Chertanovo aren't scoring a lot here at Sportivnyj gorodok Luzhniki in the league, with only 11 goals from 17 games. On the other hand, Chertanovo have conceded 22 goals.

Veles form and stats

As the visiting team in FNL matches, Veles have produced an overall stat of 7-3-6 so far. Veles seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

There might be some fixture complaints from Veles as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the FNL match against Olimpiyets (0-1). Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Yenisey.

Veles are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 16 away goals from 16 games (in the league). It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Veles have conceded 17 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Chertanovo and Veles have met before this season: Veles - Chertanovo 3-0. As for the last two games between these two teams, there's zero Chertanovo victories, zero draws and two Veles wins. Over/under statistics; two of these games ended with three goals or more, zero matches with two goals or less.
