Marsaxlokk vs Sliema Wanderers: match statistics
Marsaxlokk looks decidedly better as the host, achieving an impressive 63% win rate in home matches and 38% clean sheets.

Sliema Wanderers has serious problems in away matches, where they have lost 43% of games and have not recorded a single clean sheet (0% CS%), conceding an average of 1.57 goals per match. The visitors' form is worrying – only 0.8 points per game in the last five matches and a series of three losses in their last five away games.
