TS Galaxy form and stats

It's not happening yet for TS Galaxy on their Premier League travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? It's looking increasingly bleak for Galaxy who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Golden Arrows was the last time a defeat was avoided.

Galaxy have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 180 minutes ago. M. Macuphu was the goal scorer.

The manager S. Ramovic was unhappy after their last game, a Premier League match played at their home ground Kameelrivier Stadium. TS Galaxy suffered a 0-1 loss to AmaZulu (placed 7th).

The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-1 defeat against Sekhukhune United.

TS Galaxy are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, two draws and five defeats. From a total of seven matches.

The attacking power of Galaxy when travelling is not overwhelming with 2 goals scored from 3 league matches away. People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that TS Galaxy concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own.
