Senica form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Senica's two home games so far this season, having collected 3 points here at OMS Arena. Senica has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager Ricardo Chéu and the players.

Senica lost their last game at Zemplin Michalovce after a 0-3 scoreline. Before that game, the home loss against Slovan Bratislava with the scoreline 0-3.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Senica have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found ten matches with the results: Won 6 Drawn 4 Lost 0.

Senica has scored 3 goals so far and conceded 4 goals from 2 home games.
