Fakel form and stats

It's not happening yet for Fakel on their travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? With two straight losses from their last two away games, Fakel are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Fakel play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Olimpiyets. Before that, Fakel secured a home win against Mordovia Saransk with the score 2-1.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Fakel playing away, we found six games. Results were 0 away wins, 1 draw and 5 home wins.

It's early days yet, but Fakel has scored 1 and conceded 3 goals from their travels so far (2 games).
