Groupe Bazano are leaning on their home advantage to support them before this meeting with Don Bosco. Who will win at Stade du TP Mazembe?

Insights:
  • Groupe Bazano have the fewest scored goals (13) in Super Ligue
  • Don Bosco have the most conceded goals in the second half (3) in Super Ligue

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Don Bosco have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 7-9-11 (win-draw-loss) from 27 matches.

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

Groupe Bazano form and stats

With 2 Super Ligue wins, 6 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Groupe Bazano, who have the fewest scored goals (13) in Super Ligue, are certainly not brimming with confidence.

The Groupe fans got no joy from their last match, a Super Ligue game also here at Stade du TP Mazembe: A 0-1 defeat against Maniema Union (placed 3rd).

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Sanga Balende in a game that was won 1-0.

Groupe aren't scoring a lot here at Stade du TP Mazembe in the league, with only 7 goals from 13 games. From these home matches, Groupe have conceded only 10 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Don Bosco form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Don Bosco so far with only 14 points returning home. The records show 4-2-8 (win-draw-lose). Bosco has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

There were no winners in Bosco's previous match, a Super Ligue home game that ended 1-1 vs Renaissance (placed 9th).

A loss against Motema Pembe was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Bosco as they have only managed to score 9 times from 14 away games in the league. Bosco have conceded 14 goals in these away matches.
