Merw form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Merw's two home games in the Ýokary Liga so far this season, having collected 4 points.
Merw are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-3 away versus Ahal.
Preceding that game was the home draw versus Altyn Asyr that ended 0-0.The match schedule is unforgiving for Merw as they have a new game in only three days, a Ýokary Liga match thankfully also at home. Köpetdag Aşgabat are visiting.
Merw has the goal stats of 2-1 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
Şagadam form and stats
Things could have gone better for Şagadam in their Ýokary Liga away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.
Şagadam are travelling after their nice 5-2 home win in the fixture against Köpetdag Aşgabat (placed 6th). That victory felt nice as this side had gone three league games without victory. A bizarre match with plenty of goals last time out for Şagadam, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that fixture, will this game be as much fun?
Ahead of that game was the 0-0 draw at home against Energetik.The schedule is very tough for Şagadam now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Ýokary Liga game at Asgabat is waiting in only four days.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Şagadam has managed 1 goal and let in 1 from 2 matches.
Head 2 Head
