Moroka Swallows form and stats
The home supporters can't complain about results here at Volkswagen Dobsonville Stadium as Moroka Swallows have scored 8 goals to get 14 points from 6 games. The overall stats in the Premier League are 4-2-0 (wins-draws-losses). In general it's been a long time since Moroka Swallows tasted defeat here at Volkswagen Dobsonville Stadium, as they have taken at least one point from their last 14 home games in the league. Swallows has a nice streak going on as they have played 21 consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the University of Pretoria defeat 343 days ago.
The Swallows supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Cape Umoya United in Nedbank Cup and win 1-0. Preceding that game was the away draw at SuperSport United that finished 1-1.
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 Moroka Swallows have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found three games) they have won three times, drawn zero and lost zero.
Moroka Swallows are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 6 games. As for guarding their own goal, Swallows have only let in 3 goals at home.
AmaZulu form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for AmaZulu so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-2 (win-draw-lose).
AmaZulu has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Golden Arrows (after extra-time, 4-5 on penalties) for a Nedbank Cup game that ended a draw (1-1). That result followed a home victory 4-3 versus Bloemfontein Celtic in the Premier League.
AmaZulu are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, two draws and six defeats. From a total of nine matches.
The schedule is very tough for AmaZulu now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Premier League game at Kaizer Chiefs is waiting in only three days.
AmaZulu are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 8 away goals from 6 games (in the league). AmaZulu have conceded 8 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's three Moroka Swallows victories, three draws and four AmaZulu wins. Over/under statistics; six of these games ended with three goals or more, four matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
