This match features two teams living in the basement of the First Division, St. George's holding 14th place and Pietà Hotspurs lying 12th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.

Insights:
  • St. George's has the fewest scored goals (5) in First Division
  • Pietà Hotspurs have scored more than double the goals of St. George's.

St. George's and Pietà Hotspurs should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last 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.

St. George's form and stats

0-2-3 (win-draw-lost) are the First Division numbers at home for St. George's, who have the fewest scored goals (5) in First Division, so far this season. All in all it has been a very rough period for St. George's who hasn’t won a league-game in their last twelve attempts. Their previous win was against Swieqi, 102 days ago. George's are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Victor Tedesco Stadium, having lost their two previous games here.

As you see from the result above, St. George's suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

There will be little rest for George's after this match as they are travelling to Qormi for a First Division game in only four days.

St. George's have scored 1 goal here in 5 league matches, a depressing statistic. On the other hand, St. George's have conceded 5 goals.
