ASFB form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Premier League this season. ASFB have only managed 1 win, 2 draws and 4 losses from their games here at Stade Wobi. When ASFB hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like ASFA-Yennenga, USFA, Etoile Filante and Majestic), they have won 1 of 2 matches!

A strong away win for ASFB against RC Bobo-Dioulasso the last match.

Preceding that match was a defeat to RC Bobo-Dioulasso (0-1).

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams.

ASFB have scored 3 goals here in 7 league matches, a depressing statistic. ASFB have conceded 8 in these home matches.
