Season ticket holders at Chemelil Sports Complex haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Chemelil languishing in the 18th position so far. The guesting Sofapaka will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

Chemelil and Sofapaka should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Chemelil form and stats

With 0 Premier League wins, 1 draw and 8 defeats from their home games, Chemelil, who have the most conceded goals (53) in Premier League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. Chemelil are slowly digging their own grave here at Chemelil Sports Complex with the depressing streak of not having won a home game in nine attempts. The last victory here came in the Kariobangi Sharks match.

and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Chemelil haven't scored in 196 minutes.

The Chemelil crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-4 to Gor Mahia here at Chemelil Sports Complex in a Premier League match. Preceding that match was a defeat to KCB (0-3).

Chemelil were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Chemelil here at Chemelil Sports Complex in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (5 from 9 games). Chemelil's defense is seriously deficient as 29 goals have been conceded in these matches.

The supporters enjoyed Sofapaka's previous game versus Nzoia United (placed 15th), a Premier League 4-1 win played at home. Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting KCB's place.
