The visiting Golden Arrows side should be favourites in this visit to Chippa United, as the away team holds a 24 point advantage from their 23 league games this season.
- Chippa United have the fewest points (7) at home in Premier League
- Golden Arrows have the most scored goals in the second half (20) in Premier League
Golden Arrows could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Premier League game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at SuperSport United. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 900 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Chippa United form and stats
With 1 Premier League win, 4 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Chippa United, who have the fewest points (7) at home in Premier League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. All in all it has been a very rough period for Chippa United who hasn’t won a league-game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against Black Leopards, 91 days ago. Chippa are slowly digging their own grave here at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in eight attempts. The last victory here came in the Maritzburg United match.
The Chippa United fans got no joy from their last match, a Premier League game also here at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium: A 0-1 defeat against Baroka (placed 8th). In the game before, an away victory in the Nedbank Cup match versus Pretoria Callies with a 1-0 scoreline.
Chippa United are traveling soon after this match as the Premier League match at Kaizer Chiefs awaits in three days.
Chippa United aren't scoring a lot here at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in the league, with only 8 goals from 10 games. Chippa's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 13 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Golden Arrows form and stats
5-5-1 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Golden Arrows in their Premier League matches away.
It's the second away game in a row for Golden Arrows, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus SuperSport United (placed 6th) in the Premier League last time out. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Bloemfontein Celtic.
The schedule is very tough for Golden now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Premier League game at Mamelodi Sundowns is waiting in only three days.
Golden are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 17 times in 11 away games so far. Golden Arrows have conceded 11 goals in these away matches.
