Statistics – presented by UNIBET

  • After scoring twice in the first half of the season, Breel Embolo, has scored five goals since the Winter break, including four in his last five games.
  • RBL are the most dangerous counter-attacking side in the league. They have scored from 13 quick breaks this season, 11 of which have come in the second half of the season alone. The Foals have only scored three goals from counter attacks this campaign.
