Game week two of the Premier League season and the teams have had a few days to digest the first match. Here's the URA - Bright Stars preview:
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Premier League match only four days ago. That game was an away game at Mbarara City, so at least URA are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
URA form and stats
The home team returns to Ndejje Uni - Luwero after being equal after 90 minutes with Mbarara City (placed 8th) on their last time out; the Premier League game ended 1-1. Before that game, the home loss against Police with the scoreline 1-2.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for URA, as the Premier League home game vs SC Villa is only four days away.
Last season, URA's league statistics were 10 wins, 10 draws and 5 losses, resulting in a 5th position in the Premier League. Over these 25 matches they scored 29 goals and conceded 22. Playing at home last season URA managed 6-5-2 (win-draw-lost) with 16 goals and 8 conceded.
Bright Stars form and stats
The manager was unhappy after their last game, a Premier League match played at their home ground Champions Stadium. Bright suffered a 1-2 loss to KCCA (placed 2nd). The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-3 defeat against Mbarara City.
The schedule is very tough for Bright now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Premier League game at Express FC is waiting in only four days.
Let's have a look at how Bright Stars performed last season in the Premier League: They landed a 12th position in the league table after playing out 7 victories, 8 draws and 10 defeats. In total they scored 24 and conceded 28 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 1 - drew 5 and lost 5 with 11/16 goals scored/conceded.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last nine meetings between these two teams are: four wins for URA, two draws and three wins for Bright Stars. Over 2,5 goals: one time; under 2,5 goals: eight games.URA missing players
