Premier League: What this game might not have in elegance it should make up for in energy and dedication. Get ready for Posta Rangers - Wazito!

Insights:
  • Posta Rangers haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.
  • Wazito haven’t played a single 0-0 game.

Posta Rangers are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Wazito have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 8-5-13 (win-draw-loss) from 26 matches.

These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.

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.
