Arsenal Tula form and stats

There's been little loot from Arsenal Tula's travels as they have only collected 1 point from 12 away games in the Premier League. Arsenal Tula, who have the fewest points (1) away in Premier League, only have 0 wins to counter their 11 defeats and 1 draw. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Arsenal have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone twelve consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Krasnodar game.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Arsenal Tula, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-2 versus Akhmat Grozny (placed 11th). That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus CSKA Moskva.

A quick return to home after this game, as Arsenal Tula are hosting CSKA Moskva in the Russian Cup only four days away.
