Vihiga United and Assad have delivered a "par" performance until now, to use a golf phrase. Both occupy mid-table places in the Super League.
- Assad have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Vihiga United form and stats
Vihiga United have collected 35 points from their Super League home games so far after 10-5-3. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Vihiga United after consecutive victories at their own ground.
Vihiga United lost their last game at Mara Sugar (placed 14th) after a 2-3 scoreline. The first setback in the shape of a loss after collecting points in three league games.
Previous to that game, a home match hosting Kibera Black Stars in a game that was won 2-1.The Vihiga fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 25 in 18 matches. From these home matches, Vihiga United have conceded only 15 goals.
Assad form and stats
Assad have only collected 12 points from their away games in the Super League, after 3-3-12 (18 played).
Assad are travelling after their nice 3-2 home win in the game against Silibwet (placed 15th).
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Gusii wasn't a success with a 2-3 loss.Few goals the story here? 8 of this team's last 10 league rounds have had two or less goals.
The attacking power of Assad when travelling is not overwhelming with 14 goals scored from 18 league matches away. In the opposite end, Assad have conceded 34 goals in their away games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 4 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
