Please help!

I have a problem on a Calculus AP worksheet that I just can’t solve!
This is the question:
A certain ratio function f(x) contains quadratic functions in both its numerator and denominator. We also know that f has a vertical asymptote at x=5, a single x-intercept at x=2, and f is removably discontinuous at x=1, since lim as x approaches 1 of f(x) = -1/9. Find f(x)
I though that it was (x^2-3x+2)/(x^2-6x+5) but if u plug in 1 for x, the lim doesn’t equal -1/9! Please help me! I’ve been staring at this for hours!!!
