The story so far in the Fortuna Liga for Liptovský Mikuláš, who have the most conceded goals (34) in Fortuna Liga, at their home stadium (Futbalový štadion NTC Poprad) is 4 wins, 0 draws and 3 defeats.

Liptovský drew their last game, 2-2 away at Zilina (placed 5th). Late drama in the game against Zilina as Liptovský Mikuláš were trailing by a goal near the finishing line until David Krcik popped out and made it level in the 90th minute. A painful moment in the game against Zilina was the missed penalty kick from Richard Bartoš in the 81st minute. A goal there would obviously have changed the match and probably the outcome.

Before that game, the home loss against Spartak Trnava with the scoreline 0-2.
