It's game two of the Premier League season and everything to play for. Read our full preview!

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.

This pitch has grass, which is not Safa's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on grass Safa have performed like this: Played 34 matches resulting in 18 wins, 7 draws and 9 defeats with the goal stats 57-40 (scored/conceded). These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
