Kaizer Chiefs form and stats

Last season, Kaizer Chiefs's league results were 13 wins, 8 draws and 9 losses, leading to 5th spot in the Premier League. Over these 30 matches they scored 34 goals and let in 26. Appearing at their own stadium in the last season Kaizer Chiefs managed 6-4-5 (win-draw-lost) with 19 goals and 15 conceded.

The club members are hoping that Kaizer will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the game against Real Kings (placed 4th).

Before that, Kaizer Chiefs drew at home versus Moroka Swallows.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Kaizer matches with similar probabilities have ended with 3 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat (from 4 games).

The manager Sheppard will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Mamelodi Sundowns in only four days.

Maritzburg United form and stats

Let's have a look at how Maritzburg United performed last season in the Premier League: They landed a 12th position in the league table after playing out 7 victories, 10 draws and 13 defeats. In total they scored 22 and conceded 33 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 1 - drew 6 and lost 8 with 11/21 goals scored/conceded.

Maritzburg United's last game was the home draw against Sekhukhune United (1-1).

Preceding that game, the 1-4 loss visiting Orlando Pirates's place.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Maritzburg playing away, we found 7 games. Results were 3 away wins, 0 draws and 4 home wins.

After this away game Maritzburg United return home for a Premier League game against Moroka Swallows. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Head 2 Head

As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's four Kaizer Chiefs victories, three draws and three Maritzburg United wins. Over/under statistics; three of these games ended with three goals or more, seven matches with two goals or less.
