Here's what we know about the Fakel - Baltika match:

Competition: Russia FNL
Date: Sun 24.March
Match begins: 11:00 (UTC)
Venue: Central'nyi Stadion Profsoyuzov

This match features two teams living in the basement of the FNL, Fakel holding 15th place and Baltika lying 16th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.

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.

Baltika form and stats

The hunting on away grounds hasn’t been very fruitful for Baltika so far with only 11 points returning home. The records show 2-5-7 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Baltika's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Baltika are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the FNL against Spartak Moskva II (placed 10th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Shinnik wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Baltika are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 15 away goals from 14 games. Baltika have conceded 25 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Baltika - Fakel 0-2. H2H stats regardless of arena (last six matches): Fakel 2 wins, 2 draws and Baltika 2 victories.
