Arsenal Kyiv form and stats

With 0 wins, 3 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Arsenal Kyiv, who have the most conceded goals (42) in Premier League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. With eleven home games in a row without a win, the Arsenal Kyiv fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Kremin' game long ago, can be stopped today.

Arsenal Kyiv are returning here after visiting Chornomorets in a Premier League game and winning with a 3-1 scoreline. In the match before that, Arsenal Kyiv hosted Vorskla and drew the game 2-2.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Arsenal Kyiv here at Dynamo Training Center, with less than one goal per game on average (6 from 11 games). Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Arsenal Kyiv with 25 goals conceded in these matches.
