Merw form and stats
Merw have only collected 13 points from their away games in the Ýokary Liga, after 4-1-8 (13 played). Three consecutive losses in away matches means Merw are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.
The supporters enjoyed Merw's previous game versus Ahal (placed 1st), a 3-2 win played at home. That victory felt good as this side had gone three league games without winning.
Prior to that match, the Merw manager faced defeat when travelling to Altyn Asyr and losing 0-1.Many goals are not expected from the visiting Merw as they have only managed to score 12 times from 13 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 18 goals have been conceded by Merw in these games.
Head 2 Head
Funnily enough, the last time Merw kept a "clean sheet" was also versus this opposition, seven league games ago (Merw - Şagadam 1-0).
