Manurewa form and stats

13 points is a decent return from 6 Regional Leagues games here at Memorial Park for Manurewa. The data says 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss.

Manurewa enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at West Coast Rangers's place. The match ended 4-0 with Patterson and Staley scoring. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Manurewa played a great game against West Coast Rangers and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one. Patterson was absolutely essential when Manurewa beat West Coast Rangers 4-0, scoring three goals.

Ahead of that fixture, a home defeat in the Chatham Cup against Eastern Suburbs.

Goal party? Who knows about this one, but we do know that 9 of the 12 latest league matches with this club has seen at least three goals.

The manager Marshall will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Auckland City in only four days.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (15 in 6 games), Manurewa's attacking play is working. From these home matches, Manurewa have conceded only 4 goals.

Auckland United form and stats

Auckland United have been very strong on the road so far with a massive 15 points collected from 6 Regional Leagues games. 5 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat is the record so far. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Auckland United, as they have won on their previous two travels.

Auckland United had fun at their own home (Memorial Park) last time out, beating Hamilton Wanderers 4-0. Al-Khalisy, Redfearn, Green and Faapoi scored. As mentioned above, Auckland was the only team on the pitch versus Hamilton Wanderers in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task.
