Poprad form and stats

Poprad's struggle is real here at Futbalový štadion NTC Poprad with only 3 points collected from 9 2. Liga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-0-8. The home stadium (Futbalový štadion NTC Poprad) is supposed to be a fortress, but for Poprad it's been a house of straw as the last six games here have all been lost. Can they turn things around? It's trouble wherever Poprad are playing these days as they have suffered six straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

In their previous game, the manager S. Ďuriš led his Poprad to a defeat in the 2. Liga match away at Slovan Bratislava II. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Futbalový štadion NTC Poprad. Preceding that match was a defeat to Petržalka akadémia (0-3).

Poprad were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Poprad has scored 10 league goals at home this season, in 9 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. This has been a stadium of sighs so far as Poprad have let the opposition score 28 times, an average of more than three per game.

Dubnica form and stats

Dubnica have only collected 8 points from their away games in the 2. Liga, after 2-2-5 (9 played). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Dubnica's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Dubnica's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Zilina II that finished 1-1. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Podbrezová wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.

The visitors have scored 8 goals from 9 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. In the opposite end, Dubnica have conceded 15 goals in their away games. It's worth mentioning that 8 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
