Another action-packed fixture in Fortuna Liga as Sereď welcome Zemplín Michalovce

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Sereď form and stats

When playing at home in the Fortuna Liga, Sereď have managed 3 wins, 3 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 8 games.

Sereď are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 281 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by Cascardo).

The fans are hoping that Sereď will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Fortuna Liga game against Slovan Bratislava (placed 1st). Preceding that match was the home game against Nitra that was lost 0-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Sereď perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Sereď as a small favourite), we find three games. Sereď has won 2 of these, drawn 1 and lost 0.

Sereď has scored 11 league goals at home this season, in 8 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 12 goals have been conceded.

Zemplín Michalovce form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Zemplín Michalovce so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-4 (win-draw-lose).

Zemplín Michalovce won their last game, 5-0 versus DAC played at home. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Senica wasn't a success with a 0-4 loss.

As mentioned above, Zemplín Michalovce was the only team on the pitch versus DAC in their previous game, winning 5-0. This could be a tougher task. Zemplín Michalovce delivered their win in the match against DAC already in the first half, and could slow the play down in the final 45 minutes to ensure the three points. Solid performance!
