- Royal AM U23 have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Maritzburg United U23 have yet to win a game away.

An away draw last time out for Royal AM U23, facing SuperSport United U23 in a game that ended 1-1.
A defeat was the result before that one, 2-3 away at Marumo Gallants U23.The Royal AM U23 fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 8 in 6 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Royal defense is not exactly impregnable. 11 goals conceded from 6 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Golden Arrows U23.Both teams to score? This team's fresh fixtures suggest that, having played 5 league games in a row with one or more goals from each side.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Maritzburg United U23 as they have only managed to score 4 times from 5 away games in the league. Maritzburg United U23's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 9 goals from these trips.
