Harare City form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Harare City so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-5 (win-draw-lose). It's looking increasingly bleak for Harare City who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Yadah was the last time a defeat was avoided. Harare City seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Premier Soccer League home defeat versus Manica with 1-2 on the scoreboard. Prior to that match, the Harare City manager faced defeat when travelling to Platinum and losing 0-2.

The attacking power of Harare City when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored in 9 matches. 13 goals have been conceded by Harare City in these games.

Head 2 Head

The dueling parties have met before this season: Harare City - Highlanders 3-1. Last eight meetings between the teams: Highlanders won 4, Harare City won 1 and 3 draws. 2 games with over 2,5 goals, 6 matches with two goals or less.
