Inhulets form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Inhulets so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-7 (win-draw-lose). The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on S. Lavrynenko, the Inhulets manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

The attacking players of Inhulets have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 272 minutes.

Two away games in a row for Inhulets, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-5 versus Dynamo Kyiv in the Premier League. Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs Rukh Vynnyky.

Inhulets lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-5 beating and focus on this one.

After this away game Inhulets return home for a Premier League game against Lviv. That game is only four sleeps after this.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Inhulets as they have only managed to score 10 times from 11 away games in the league. The Inhulets manager S. Lavrynenko has some worries about the defense as 25 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Inhulets - Olimpik 2-1 earlier this season.
