Celje form and stats

The story so far in the 1. SNL for Celje at their home stadium (Stadion Z'dežele) is 8 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats.

The Celje fans got no joy from their last match, also played here at Stadion Z'dežele: A 1-3 defeat against Mura (placed 3rd).

In the game before, an away victory match versus Aluminij with a 6-0 scoreline.

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

The Celje fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 23 in 17 matches. Celje have conceded 19 in these home matches.

Mura form and stats

As the visiting team in 1. SNL matches, Mura have produced an overall stat of 5-7-5 so far.

Mura play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-1 victory visiting Celje (placed 6th).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Radomlje wasn't a success with a 2-3 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Mura playing away and similar expectations, we found twelve relevant matches. Results were five Mura wins, three draws and four defeats.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Mura have scored 23 goals in 17 league games away. Mura have conceded 23 goals in these away matches.
