After three games we know a little more about the qualities of TN Stars and Mzuni in this fresh Super League season. Read our match preview!
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only one day ago in the Super League. That game was also an away game, at CIVO United. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
TN Stars form and stats
A strong away win for Stars against Moyale Barracks the last match. Prior to that, an away loss at Ekwendeni Hammers.
This is expected to be a close game, with TN Stars perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with TN Stars as a small favourite), we find four games. Stars has won two of these, drawn one and lost one.
Mzuni form and stats
Mzuni have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Super League were 3 victories, 4 draws and 8 defeats from 15 fixtures.
Mzuni play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-1 to CIVO United (placed 1st). A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting Be Forward Wanderers.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Mzuni playing away and similar expectations, we found one relevant match. Results were zero Mzuni wins, zero draws and one defeat.
Mzuni have the goal stats of 0-1 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
Head 2 Head
As for the last four games between these two teams, there's two Stars victories, one draw and one Mzuni win. Over/under statistics; three of these games ended with three goals or more, one match with two goals or less.TN Stars missing players
