Ligue 1: Slimane - Monastir preview and the hard facts

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Slimane and Monastir.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Monastir have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 5-6-4 (win-draw-loss) from 15 matches.

Slimane form and stats

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 193 minutes without scoring a league goal. E. Brini was the last player to find the net.

No payout for Slimane in their previous match, an away game at Club Africain that ended in defeat 0-1.

Heartbreak before that as Slimane lost 0-1 at Olympique Béja's place.

Monastir form and stats

Only one away game in the Ligue 1 so far for Monastir and it resulted in three points. Last season the statistics for their away games were 3 victories, 2 draws and 8 losses from 13 travels.

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Monastir goalkeeper is eager to challenge this, with his 283 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

Impressive finishing secured the home win 1-0 against Etoile du Sahel in their previous game.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Rejiche at their stadium, the result 1-0.

It's early days yet, but Monastir has scored 1 and conceded 0 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
