Sekhukhune United form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first Premier League game of the season here at Peter Mokaba Stadium. Last season these fans witnessed 8 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses from Sekhukhune United's 15 home games.

The fans are hoping that Sekhukhune will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-5 away defeat in the Mtn 8 Cup fixture against Orlando Pirates.

A strong away win before that one, visiting Ajax Cape Town and winning 2-0.

This is expected to be a close game, with Sekhukhune United perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Sekhukhune United as a small favourite), we find 10 games. Sekhukhune United has won 6 of these, drawn 3 and lost 1.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Sekhukhune as they have a new game in only three days, a CAF Confederations Cup match thankfully also at home. Young Buffaloes are visiting.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Sekhukhune United at home in the league. 1 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
