Tshakhuma form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Tshakhuma's two home games in the First Division so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Thohoyandou Stadium.

Tshakhuma drew their last game, also a home match. Jomo Cosmos was the opponent, 1-1 the score. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Cape Umoya United in a game that was won 2-1.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Tshakhuma at home in the league. 3 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Moroka Swallows form and stats

Moroka Swallows have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the First Division were 3 victories, 4 draws and 8 defeats from 15 fixtures. Moroka Swallows seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

It might be tough going out on the road again for Moroka Swallows, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-1 versus Cape Umoya United. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against TS Sporting.

It's early days yet, but Moroka Swallows has scored 0 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
