This could be an interesting match as Bandari have their presumed home advantage while Homeboyz are ahead 18 points in the Premier League table.

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.

Homeboyz have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
