Abahani and Eagles get a break from their league challenge to fight for a possible trophy in this AFC Cup 2nd Preliminary Round fixture.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Abahani form and stats
Last season their AFC Cup adventure ended in the 2nd preliminary round against Maziya.14 points is a decent return from 7 Premier League games here at Bangabandhu National Stadium for Abahani. The data says 4 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss.
The Abahani supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Baridhara in Premier League and win 2-1. Preceding that match was the home Premier League game against Bashundhara Kings that was lost 1-4.
The Abahani fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 7 matches. Abahani have conceded 8 in these home matches.
Eagles form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Thimphu City in order to reach 2nd preliminary round of AFC Cup.Things could have gone better for Eagles in their Male League away matches, but 5 points from 3 games is all right. Eagles are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played 16 in a row without losing.
Eagles have scored 3 goals on their travels this season, from 3 away games in the league. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (2 so far).
