This match features two teams living in the basement of the Premier League, Baroka holding 12th place and Stellenbosch lying 16th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
It's quite the trip for Stellenbosch when visiting Baroka as the cities are 1700 kilometers apart.
Baroka form and stats
With 0 Premier League wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Baroka, who have the most conceded goals (10) at home in Premier League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. With eight home games in a row without a win, the Baroka fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Cape Town City game long ago, can be stopped today.
The home supporters saw a 2-2 draw versus Orlando Pirates in the Premier League last time out and are looking for a win here. Before that, Baroka played out a draw 0-0 when visiting Chippa United.
There was plenty of action in the dying minutes of the game against Orlando Pirates as G. Phiri's goal in the 90th minute completed a cancellation of 0-2 and secured a point.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Baroka have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 15 matches with the results: Won 2 Drawn 7 Lost 6.
