Poprad form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the 2. Liga this season. Poprad, who have the most conceded goals (71) in 2. Liga, have only managed 1 win, 0 draws and 10 losses from their games here at Futbalový štadion NTC Poprad. All in all it has been a very rough period for Poprad who hasn’t won a league-game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against FK Košice, 133 days ago. With eight home 2. Liga games in a row without a win, the Poprad fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Slovan Bratislava II game long ago, can be stopped today.

Poprad are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-4 away versus Podbrezová. Ahead of that match, Poprad lost 2-4 at home to Skalica.

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 12 league goals at home this season, in 11 matches. This has been a stadium of sighs so far as Poprad have let the opposition score 34 times, an average of more than three per game.

The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Žilina have lost on their last two travels.

Žilina II lost away at Slavoj Trebišov (1-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Podbrezová.

Žilina II are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 13 away goals from 11 games (in the league). Žilina have conceded 24 goals in these games.
