Eskişehirspor form and stats

There's been little loot from Eskişehirspor's travels as they have only collected 2 points from 15 away games in the 1. Lig. Eskişehirspor, who have the fewest scored goals (21) in 1. Lig, only have 0 wins to counter their 13 defeats and 2 draws. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 15 away games in a row. With the Eskişehirspor losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

A 2-5 defeat away at Tuzlaspor before that.

The attacking power of Eskişehirspor when travelling is not overwhelming with 13 goals scored from 15 league matches away. There are big problems for the Eskişehirspor defense as they have conceded 50 goals in 15 away games.
