Another interesting game in the Persian Gulf Pro League. Saipa is in the 10th position after playing six matches. They welcome Machine Sazi who are placed 16th after five games.
- Saipa have not yet lost a game at home.
- Machine Sazi has the most conceded goals (10) in Persian Gulf Pro League
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!
Saipa form and stats
Saipa have secured 5 points from their first three home games in the Persian Gulf Pro League. A decent catch, still with room for improvement.
Stress levels are on the rise for Saipa's attacking players as they have now played 187 minutes without scoring in a league game. M. Aliyari was their last goal scorer.
Saipa are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-3 away versus Foolad. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Mes Rafsanjan.
Saipa has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 1 goal from 3 games. Defensively Saipa have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (0 in 3 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Machine Sazi form and stats
It's not happening yet for Machine Sazi on their Persian Gulf Pro League travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Machine Sazi's last three away games as they have all been lost.
There were no winners in Machine's previous match, a Persian Gulf Pro League home game that ended 0-0 vs Tractor Sazi (placed 11th).
Machine are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 1 goal from 3 away games. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Machine Sazi's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 8 goals in 3 travels.
Head 2 Head
As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's three Saipa victories, five draws and two Machine Sazi wins. Over/under statistics; two of these games ended with three goals or more, eight matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
