Pohronie v DAC preview: Visitors can prove cut above

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Pohronie and DAC.

Pohronie form and stats

The home team returns to Futbalový štadión Žiar nad Hronom after being equal after 90 minutes with Zlate Moravce (placed 8th) on their last time out; the Fortuna Liga game ended 2-2. Ahead of that match, Pohronie won a home game hosting Senica (1-0).

There was plenty of action in the dying minutes of the game against Zlate Moravce as J. Weir's goal in the 90th minute completed a cancellation of 0-2 and secured a draw after 90 minutes. P. Mazáň felt an ounce or two of guilt after the draw against Zlate Moravce as the player was unable to convert a penalty kick in the 55th minute.

There will be little rest for Pohronie after this match as they are travelling to Spartak Trnava for a Fortuna Liga game in only three days.

Last season, Pohronie's league statistics were 3 wins, 7 draws and 12 losses, resulting in a 12th position in the Tipsport Liga. Over these 22 matches they scored 19 goals and conceded 38. Playing at home last season Pohronie managed 1-4-6 (win-draw-lost) with 9 goals and 21 conceded.

DAC form and stats

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. DAC goalkeeper Martin Jedlicka is eager to challenge this, with his 270 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

DAC had fun at their own home (Futbalový štadión Žiar nad Hronom) last time out, beating Sered 6-0. A. Balić (2), É. Davis, Z. Kalmár, E. Ramírez and M. Divković scored. Preceding that game was the away victory against Ruzomberok with the score of 1-0.

As mentioned above, DAC was the only team on the pitch versus Sered in their previous game, winning 6-0. This could be a tougher task.

A quick return to home after this game, as DAC are hosting Nitra in the Fortuna Liga only three days away.

Let's have a look at how DAC performed last season in the Tipsport Liga: They landed a 3rd position in the league table after playing out 11 victories, 5 draws and 6 defeats. In total they scored 31 and conceded 25 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 5 - drew 2 and lost 4 with 13/17 goals scored/conceded.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last three meetings): Pohronie won zero games, zero matches ended with a draw and DAC has three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: two / one
