Žilina have less rest than Zlaté Moravce in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Slovakia Cup game only three days ago. This match was also played here at Štadión Pod Dubňom. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Zlaté Moravce have had more rest.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Zlaté Moravce have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 0-2-5 (win-draw-loss) from seven matches.

The Žilina fans got no joy from their last match, a Slovakia Cup game also here at Štadión Pod Dubňom: A 1-2 defeat against Slovan Bratislava (after extra-time). The defeat against Slovan Bratislava (after extra-time) was especially painful as the deciding goal against was scored four minutes into stoppage time (by V. Weiss).

A 1-1 draw away in the Fortuna Liga before that, with Spartak Trnava the opponent.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Žilina matches with similar probabilities have ended with five wins, zero draws and zero defeats (from five games).

Zlaté Moravce form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Fortuna Liga travels is 3 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats. Bitter travels for Moravce as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Nitra match.

F. Balaj was the last player to score for the away team. Zlaté Moravce haven't scored a league goal in the last 361 minutes.

The manager Ľ. Benkovský was unhappy after their last game, a Fortuna Liga match played at their home ground Štadión FC ViOn Zlaté Moravce. Zlaté Moravce suffered a 0-4 loss to Slovan Bratislava. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Slovan Bratislava was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.

Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs Spartak Trnava.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Zlaté Moravce playing away, we found two games. Results were zero away wins, one draw and one home win.

Moravce have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 11 league away games 13 goals have been scored. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 16 goals have been conceded by Moravce in these games. It's worth mentioning that 10 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
