Royal Eagles are welcoming TS Galaxy for another important game after their 0-0 result against 7th-placed Free State Stars.
The visiting TS Galaxy played their last game only four days ago, a Gladafrica Championship match.
Relegation threatens Royal Eagles who should definitely be looking for some points here. Galaxy are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.
Royal Eagles form and stats
Royal Eagles's results here at Harry Gwala Stadium in the Gladafrica Championship have been very modest with 3 victories, 3 draws and 6 defeats.
Nothing to worry about in defence for Royal Eagles, as their goalkeeper has completely shut out the opponents for 210 minutes in the Gladafrica Championship.
Eagles drew their last game, 0-0 away at Free State Stars (placed 7th). Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against University of Pretoria.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Eagles as they have a new game in only three days, a Gladafrica Championship match thankfully also at home. Jomo Cosmos are visiting.
Eagles are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 16 goals in 12 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Eagles defense is not exactly impregnable. 23 goals conceded from 12 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
TS Galaxy form and stats
As the visiting team in Gladafrica Championship matches, TS Galaxy have produced an overall stat of 3-4-5 so far. Galaxy seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
TS Galaxy aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 270 league minutes without a goal.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Ajax Cape Town wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Cape Umoya United in just three days.
The attacking power of TS Galaxy when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 12 league matches away. As opposed to that, TS Galaxy have seen the ball go into their own net 13 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
TS Galaxy - Eagles 2-2 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season. Last three meetings between the teams: Eagles won one, TS Galaxy won zero and two draws. one game with over 2,5 goals, two matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
