Mathare United form and stats
Mathare United have played three Premier League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 0 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Game days at Moi International Sports Centre have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Mathare United as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.
J. Mwangi was the last player to score a league goal for Mathare and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Mathare United haven't scored in 192 minutes.
The Mathare crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Bidco United here at Moi International Sports Centre in a Premier League match.
Preceding that match was a defeat to Kariobangi Sharks (0-6).There will be little rest for Mathare after this match as they are travelling to Homeboyz for a Premier League game in only four days.
The lack of attacking qualities in Mathare means that they have only scored 0 goals in 3 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Mathare having conceded 8 goals here at Moi International Sports Centre so far.
