Albion: attack lacks spark, defence struggles to hold firm
Albion are having a season without any clear objective - they sit bottom of the table and are under no pressure to deliver results. Their last five matches have gone badly: four defeats and one draw point to a significant dip in form. Across their last ten games, Albion have managed just one win, which came in the cup, losing seven times and drawing twice. Their average of 0.8 goals scored per game over that period is low, while they have been conceding considerably more - 1.6 per match. A weak attack combined with a vulnerable defence makes for a difficult picture, particularly given how the season has gone.

What’s Behind Defensor Sporting’s Inconsistency

Over their last ten matches, they have won just twice, losing four and drawing four; they are averaging 0.8 goals scored per game and conceding 1.4 per match. Away from home, Defensor tend to find things harder - they rarely score more than one goal, but do regularly get on the scoresheet at least once.
