Mash'al form and stats

There's been little loot from Mash'al's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 6 away games in the Professional Football League. Mash'al only have 1 win to counter their 4 defeats and 1 draw.

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Mash'al goalkeeper Rahimjon Davronov is eager to challenge this, with his 195 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

There were no winners in Mash'al's previous match, a Professional Football League home game that ended 0-0 vs Andijan (placed 12th). Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Lokomotiv.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Mash'al playing away and similar expectations, we found one relevant match. Results were zero Mash'al wins, one draw and zero defeats.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Buxoro in just four days.

Mash'al are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 3 goals from 6 away games. In the opposite end, Mash'al have conceded 9 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: three wins for Navbahor, two draws and five wins for Mash'al. Over 2,5 goals: seven times; under 2,5 goals: three games.
