Only a win will satisfy the home supporters in this Bukhungu Stadium clash with Kisumu All Stars, having a healthy lead on the opposition 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.
This pitch has grass, which is not Kisumu All Stars's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on grass Kisumu All Stars have performed like this: Played four matches resulting in 0 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats with the goal stats 2-8 (scored/conceded).
Homeboyz form and stats
13 points is a decent return from 6 Premier League games here at Bukhungu Stadium for Homeboyz. The data says 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Homeboyz after consecutive victories at their own ground.
Homeboyz manager and his team return home after a 2-2 draw away versus Ulinzi Stars (placed 4th) in the Premier League. Before that, Homeboyz had a home game versus Bandari which ended with a victory 1-0.
The manager will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Zoo Kericho in only four days.
The Homeboyz fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 10 goals in 6 league matches. Homeboyz have only conceded 5 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Kisumu All Stars form and stats
Kisumu All Stars have only collected 3 points from their away games in the Premier League, after 0-3-4 (7 played). With the Kisumu All Stars losing streak of five defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Kisumu All Stars's last three away games as they have all been lost.
Kisumu All Stars have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 232 minutes ago. W. Kemboi was the goal scorer.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Premier League home defeat versus Gor Mahia with 0-3 on the scoreboard. Preceding that, the 0-2 home loss versus Bandari.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Kisumu All Stars manager as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Tusker.
Kisumu All Stars are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 3 goals from 7 away games. In the opposite end, Kisumu All Stars have conceded 11 goals in their away games.
