Game week two of the Premier League season and the teams have had a few days to digest the first match. Here's the Tai Chung - Pegasus preview:
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 artifical turf and that the visiting Pegasus have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 1-0-0 (win-draw-loss) from one match.
These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
Tai Chung form and stats
Chung lost their last game at Eastern (placed 1st) after a 0-5 scoreline. In the preceding match a 2-0 victory visiting Wong Tai Sin.
Chung were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
Last season, Tai Chung's league statistics were 0 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses, resulting in a 12th position in the First Division. Over these zero matches they scored 0 goals and conceded 0. Playing at home last season Tai Chung managed 0-0-0 (win-draw-lost) with 0 goals and 0 conceded.
Pegasus form and stats
Pegasus aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 202 league minutes without a goal. Chan Pak-Hang was the last player to find the net.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Premier League home defeat versus Southern District with 0-4 on the scoreboard. A 0-5 defeat away at Eastern before that.
As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Southern District was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.
Let's have a look at how Pegasus performed last season in the Premier League: They landed a 8th position in the league table after playing out 1 victory, 3 draws and 5 defeats. In total they scored 12 and conceded 19 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 0 - drew 1 and lost 2 with 6/9 goals scored/conceded.
Head 2 Head
Last four meetings between the teams: Chung won one, Pegasus won three and zero draws. two games with over 2,5 goals, two matches with two goals or less.Tai Chung missing players
