The visiting Kitchee side should be favourites in this visit to Happy Valley, as the away team holds a 19 point advantage from their 14 league games this season.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Happy Valley form and stats
With 0 Premier League wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Happy Valley, who have the most conceded goals (31) in Premier League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in eleven attempts. Happy Valley are slowly digging their own grave here at Mong Kok Stadium with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in seven attempts. The last victory here came in the Central & Western match.
A 1-1 draw away before that, with Southern District the opponent.
Valley were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
A decent goal production from Happy Valley in their home games so far, with 9 goals from 6 league matches. Defensively there's plenty of potential for improvement as Happy Valley have allowed the opposition to score 17 goals here at Mong Kok Stadium.
Kitchee form and stats
3-2-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Kitchee in their Premier League matches away.
Preceding that game was the away victory against Guangzhou R&F U19 with the score of 3-2.
The Kitchee manager B. Slišković has got the team scoring on the road, with 15 away goals in 7 league matches. 9 goals have been conceded by Kitchee in these games.
