With their 9 point advantage in the league table, Sheikh Jamal fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Brothers Union.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Sheikh Jamal and Brothers Union.

There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.

Sheikh Jamal form and stats

With 1 win, 3 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Sheikh Jamal are certainly not brimming with confidence. The Sheikh Jamal manager J. Afusi might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

Sheikh Jamal's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 2-5 versus Brothers Union. Before that match, a win away at Arambagh.

The Sheikh Jamal fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium, the tally being 9 in 8 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 13 goals have been conceded.
