Church Boys form and stats
Church Boys must be fairly happy with 5 points from their first three A Division games here at Dashrath Rangasala.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Church, who played 0-0 against Armed Police Force. That match was also played at this venue (Dashrath Rangasala).
2-2 away at New Road Team before that.There will be little rest for Church Boys after this match as they are travelling to Three Star for a A Division game in only four days.
As for guarding their own goal, Church Boys have only let in {1 goals} at home.
Friends Club form and stats
Friends Club are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the A Division, having played 3 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 2 losses).
Home advantage was not enough for Friends in their previous game as they lost hosting Nepal Police, 1-3.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Manang Marshyangdi wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.The schedule is very tough for Friends Club now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A A Division game at Himalayan Sherpa is waiting in only four days.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Friends as they have only managed to score 2 times from 3 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Friends Club have seen the ball go into their own net 4 times on the road.
