Desna U21 form and stats

Desna U21's struggle is real here with only 6 points collected from 12 Youth League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-3-8. All in all it has been a very rough period for Desna who hasn’t won a league-game in their last 14 attempts. Their previous win was against Minai U21, 174 days ago. Desna are slowly digging their own grave here with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in eight attempts. The last victory here came in the Minai U21 match.

The Desna fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 14 in 12 matches. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Desna having conceded 32 goals here so far.
