This game was marked in the calendar a long time ago by fans of both participants, as it's the premier National Division fixture of the season. Both Petrocub and Sheriff are aiming for a positive start to their season.
It's no vacation for neither Petrocub nor Sheriff as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Petrocub form and stats
The season before, Petrocub's league statistics were 8 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses, leading to 2nd place in the National Division. Over these 14 matches they scored {20 goals} and conceded 11. Appearing at home in the former season Petrocub generated 5-1-1 (win-draw-lost) with {11 goals} and 5 conceded.
Sheriff form and stats
Last season was a triumph for Sheriff in the national league as they took home the National Division trophy. The championship was secured after 10 wins, 3 draws and only 1 defeat. As this is an away game, it's natural to look at the stats for away matches last season: Won 5, drew 1 and lost 1.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Sheriff manager Bordin as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against BATE.
