This duo has struggled so far, but three lovely points in this important game would certainly help. Get set for Qrendi - Marsaskala!
- Qrendi have the the worst goal difference (-18) in First Division
- Marsaskala have the most conceded goals in the second half (18) in First Division
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.
These are hustling days for the host team, as they played only four days ago in the First Division. That game was an away game at Tarxien Rainbows, so at least Qrendi are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
Qrendi form and stats
With 1 First Division win, 2 draws and 3 defeats from their home games, Qrendi are certainly not brimming with confidence.
Qrendi faced defeat in their previous match, away at Tarxien Rainbows (0-4). Qrendi were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
Preceding that match was the home game against Zurrieq that was lost 2-5.There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Qrendi as they are travelling to their away game against Mtarfa in the First Division. That match is three days after this one.
The Qrendi fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 8 in 6 matches. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Qrendi with 13 goals conceded in these matches.
Marsaskala form and stats
Marsaskala have only collected 1 point from their away games in the First Division, after 0-1-5 (6 played).
Marsaskala's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Marsa that finished 2-2. Drawing 2-2 against Marsa after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager Vella needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Sliema Wanderers wasn't a success with a 1-5 loss.Take note that 11 of this team's 13 most recent league matches have ended with three goals or more.
After this away game Marsaskala return home for a First Division game against Zejtun Corinthians. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Marsaskala has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 9 goals from 6 games.
