Senica favourites for feisty fight facing Pohronie

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Slovakia Cup. That game was also an away game, at Rakytovce. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Senica form and stats

Overall Fortuna Liga stats at home this season for Senica, who have the fewest scored goals (7) in Fortuna Liga, are 1-1-3 (wins-draw-losses). Senica are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at OMS Arena, having lost their two previous games here.

The home team returns to OMS Arena after sharing the points with Spartak Trnava (placed 5th) on their last time out; the Fortuna Liga game ended 0-0. Before that game, the home loss against DAC with the scoreline 0-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Senica have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found three games) they have won 2 times, drawn 0 and lost 1.

There will be little rest for Senica after this match as they are travelling to OFK Malzenice for a Slovakia Cup game in only four days.

The Senica fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 6 in 5 matches. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Senica with 10 goals conceded in these matches.

Pohronie form and stats

1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Pohronie, who have the most conceded goals (22) in Fortuna Liga, playing as the away team in the Fortuna Liga this season.

It's the second away game in a row for Pohronie, but there's smiles all around after the 5-1 victory versus Rakytovce in the Slovakia Cup last time out. A 1-2 defeat away at Zilina before that.

Pohronie are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 0 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat. From a total of two matches.

Pohronie find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 6 goals from 5 away fixtures in the league. The Pohronie manager J. Rosinsky has some worries about the defense as 10 goals have been conceded in these travels.
