Las Vegas Lights form and stats

Las Vegas Lights have only collected 10 points from their away games in the USL Championship, after 3-1-11 (15 played).

Las Vegas Lights might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Phoenix Rising proved too strong as Lights slumped to a 3-6 defeat in front of their own fans at Cashman Field (Las Vegas, Nevada). As you can tell from the result, the match against Phoenix Rising was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 9 goals, will the fun continue today? Imagine losing a game despite one player scoring three goals? That's the story of C. Jennings in the match against Phoenix Rising.

Preceding that game was the away victory against Tacoma Defiance with the score of 1-0.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Las Vegas Lights played away with similar odds. This revealed three games. The visitors overcame the odds to win zero times, one were draw and the home team won as expected two times.

Lights find the net regularly in their away games. 18 goals from 15 away fixtures in the league. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Lights's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 41 goals in 15 travels.
