Vale of Leithen form and stats
The manager J. Burrell is not happy with the away performances in the Football League so far, as all 4 matches have been lost. Bitter travels for Leithen as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Berwick Rangers match. It's looking increasingly bleak for Vale of Leithen who now has to deal with a six game losing streak. Berwick Rangers was the last time a defeat was avoided.
Prior to that match, the Leithen manager J. Burrell faced defeat when travelling to Kelty Hearts and losing 0-4.
As you can see from the result above, the defeat against East Stirlingshire was particularly ugly (0-7). The humiliation is still top of mind.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Leithen manager J. Burrell as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Spartans.
Goals are few and far between in Vale of Leithen's away league games. Only 1 goal from 4 travels.
