A short peek at the Premier League standings indicate an edge to Kariobangi Sharks when they visit Wazito. Even so; let's play the match before select a winner!

Insights:
  • Wazito have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Kariobangi Sharks have the fewest conceded goals (5) away in Premier League

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Kariobangi Sharks have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 5-2-1 (win-draw-loss) from eight matches.

These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.

This should be an action-packed match with lots of fun and energy as both contenders are well recovered since they last ran out on the pitch. Bring it on!
