Zorya form and stats

2-0-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Zorya in their Premier League matches away.

It's the second away game in a row for Zorya, but there's smiles all around after the 4-0 victory versus Chornomorets (placed 16th) last time out. That victory felt good as this club had gone three league fixtures without victory. As you can tell from the results above, Zorya was very dominant against Chornomorets, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 4-0 (!) with Kyriukhantsev, Rusyn, Shakhov and Buletsa providing the goals.

Preceding that game, the 0-3 loss visiting Dnipro-1's place.

Goal alert! This side have played 7 consecutive league fixtures all featuring three or more than three goals (over 2.5 goals).

{8 goals} so far away for Zorya, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 8. All from 4 league matches away.
