Airbus UK form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Premier League this season. Airbus UK have only managed 0 wins, 1 draw and 7 losses from their games here at The Airfield. Problems are piling up for Airbus UK as they are struggling in their away games as well, taking their total losing streak to a running total of ten games. This streak could be one for the history books.

In their previous game, the manager O'Shaughnessy led his Airbus UK to a defeat away at The New Saints. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at The Airfield. As you see from the result above, Airbus UK suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

Prior to that, an away loss at Bala Town.

Scoring bonanza? Who knows what will happen in this one, but we do know that 10 of the 11 latest league matches with this team has seen three goals or more.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Airbus as they are travelling to their away game against Penybont in the Premier League. That match is three days after this one.

Airbus UK's defense is seriously deficient as 26 goals have been conceded in these matches. When Airbus hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like Pontypridd Town AFC, Aberystwyth Town and Flint Town United), the matches have ended over 2.5 goals 2 of 2 times.
