  • 15' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.

  • 37' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 42' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
