  • San Gwann have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Zebbug and San Gwann.

This pitch has sand pitch, which is not San Gwann's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on sand pitch San Gwann have performed like this: Played eight matches resulting in 3 wins, 0 draws and 5 defeats with the goal stats 12-16 (scored/conceded).

This is a local derby, usually meaning added tension and importance.
