Inverness CT form and stats

Inverness CT's mission in League Cup last season failed in the group stage.

6-8-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Inverness CT in their Championship matches away.

The Inverness CT goalkeeper Mark Ridgers is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 230 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.

Inverness lost away at St. Johnstone (0-4) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against St. Johnstone was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.

Preceding that game, the 0-4 loss visiting St. Johnstone's place.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Inverness CT manager Dodds as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Livingston.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Inverness CT have scored 23 goals in 18 league games away. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (17 so far).
