University of Pretoria form and stats
University of Pretoria have performed here at ABSA Tuks Stadium this season with 4 wins from 7 Gladafrica Championship matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 3 games and lost 0. Pretoria have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.
University of Pretoria's previous game was a Nedbank Cup match also played at home, ending 2-1 versus Hungry Lions (placed 10th). The home side are looking to build on that result.
Before that, Pretoria drew at home versus Polokwane City.The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Pretoria have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found two games) they have won one time, drawn one and lost zero.
Pretoria can score goals in their home matches. After 7 league matches they have found the net 14 times. On the other hand, University of Pretoria have conceded 7 goals.
Pretoria Callies form and stats
Pretoria Callies have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Gladafrica Championship, after 2-1-5 (8 played). It's looking increasingly bleak for Pretoria who now has to deal with a five game losing streak. TTM was the last time a defeat was avoided.
Two away games in a row for Pretoria, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-3 versus Venda FC in the Nedbank Cup.
Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Platinum City Rovers.Pretoria are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, one draw and zero defeats. From a total of one match.
The visitors have scored 5 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. 8 goals have been conceded by Pretoria in these games.
