Dandenong City form and stats
Dandenong City have played three home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 0 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. The season ticket holders are starting to dread their visits here at FrankHolohan Soccer Centre, with the home team losing four in a row. They have not avoided a defeat here since the Avondale Heights game. Dandenong City has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager and the players.The Dandenong City crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 3-4 to Dandenong Thunder here at FrankHolohan Soccer Centre in a Npl Victoria match. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Hume City (1-5).
The Dandenong City fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium, the tally being 4 in 3 matches. Dandenong City have allowed more than three conceded goals on average in their home matches so far.
Oakleigh Cannons form and stats
The season is young and Oakleigh Cannons have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far. Oakleigh Cannons has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.It might be tough going out on the road again for Oakleigh Cannons, facing their second straight away game. Especially as that game, in the Npl Victoria, ended a defeat 2-3 versus Bentleigh Greens. A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Heidelberg United.
Oakleigh Cannons are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 4 away goals from 3 games. The Oakleigh Cannons manager has some worries about the defense as 6 goals have been conceded in these travels.
