Only a win will satisfy the Orlando Pirates supporters in this Orlando Stadium clash with TS Galaxy, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the Premier League table.
- Orlando Pirates has the fewest conceded goals in the second half (2) in Premier League
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Premier League. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Maritzburg United.
Orlando Pirates form and stats
Orlando Pirates have played 6 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-4-0 (wins-draws-losses). Two draws in a row at home now for Orlando Pirates.
Orlando are confident in defense, having played 230 minutes without conceding a goal in the league.
Orlando are returning here after visiting Maritzburg United in a Premier League game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. D. Hotto scored the goal(s). The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Golden Arrows.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Orlando Pirates as they have a new game in only four days, a Premier League match thankfully also at home. Kaizer Chiefs are visiting.
The Orlando Pirates fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 6 in 6 matches. From these home matches, Orlando have conceded only 4 goals.
TS Galaxy form and stats
TS Galaxy have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Premier League, after 1-3-2 (6 played).
Two travels in a row for TS Galaxy, whose manager Z. Dlangalala could celebrate last time after the Premier League win against Maritzburg United. A loss against Chippa United was the result prior to that, in a home game.
The schedule is very tough for TS Galaxy now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Premier League game at Black Leopards is waiting in only four days.
The visiting TS Galaxy have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 6 goals from 6 games. As opposed to that, Galaxy have seen the ball go into their own net 6 times on the road.
