Ashanti Gold form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Ashanti Gold's two home games in the Premier League so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Len Clay Stadium.

Ashanti's last game was hosting Elmina Sharks (placed 6th) and winning 4-2. Heartbreak before that as Ashanti Gold lost 1-2 at Salitas's place.

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

At Len Clay Stadium, Ashanti Gold has the goal stats of 6-4 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.

King Faisal form and stats

No Premier League points yet away for King Faisal, from their first 2 matches. King Faisal seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

King Faisal lost away at Karela (0-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Inter Allies.

A quick return to home after this game, as Faisal are hosting Hearts of Oak in the Premier League only four days away.

King Faisal have the goal stats of 3-6 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Ashanti Gold three wins, six draws and King Faisal one victory. As for goals, one match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), nine games had two or less.
