The most recurrent result at half‑time in their home league matches was the 0‑1 (4 out of 11 matches).

On the other hand, they can look for something even better and that will depend only on them and what they will present in the field. Therefore, they should show within the four lines a lot of attitude and determination in order not to risk losing silly points.
