Sheikh Russel form and stats

Seven points from three Premier League home games is a great start for Sheikh Russel, who are hoping to build on that form here at Bangabandhu National Stadium.

Before that, Sheikh Russel had a home game versus Muktijoddha SKC which ended with a victory 1-0.

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Sheikh as they are travelling to their away game against Saif in the Premier League. That match is four days after this one.

Sheikh are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 3 games. From these home matches, Sheikh Russel have conceded only 2 goals.

Arambagh form and stats

It's not happening yet for Arambagh on their Premier League travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? It's looking increasingly bleak for Arambagh who now has to deal with a five game losing streak. Mohammedan Dhaka was the last time a defeat was avoided. Arambagh has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Preceding that game, the 0-6 loss visiting Sheikh Jamal's place.

A quick return to home after this game, as Arambagh are hosting Abahani in the Premier League only four days away.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Arambagh has managed 0 goals and let in 7 from 2 matches.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Sheikh Russel won six games, two matches ended with a draw and Arambagh has two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: five / five
