This match features two teams living in the basement of the Super League, Masters Security holding 16th place and Mlatho Mponela lying 14th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Masters Security form and stats
With 1 Super League win, 5 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Masters Security, who have the the worst goal difference (-18) in Super League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. All in all it has been a very rough period for Masters Security who hasn’t won a game in their last 15 attempts. Their previous win was against Chitipa United, 127 days ago. With nine home games in a row without a win, the Masters Security fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Ntopwa game long ago, can be stopped today.
The Masters Security crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-3 to Karonga United here at Dedza Stadium in a Super League match. Preceding that match was a defeat to Kamuzu Barracks (0-1).
The manager will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Silver Strikers in only two days.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Masters Security here at Dedza Stadium in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (6 from 11 games). Masters Security's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 13 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
