Competition: Nepal A Division
Competition: Wed 26.April
Match begins: 12:15 (UTC)
Venue: Dashrath Rangasala (65000 seats)

Greeting visitors in their own stadium feels secure and friendly for Himalayan Sherpa, but Jawalakhel are fully determined and qualified to win this one. How will it turn out?

Insights:
  • Himalayan Sherpa have the most conceded goals in the first half (8) in A Division
  • Jawalakhel have the most scored goals (22) in A 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.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
