Marumo Gallants vs Durban City: match statistics
Marumo Gallants are on a disastrous run of five consecutive defeats without scoring a goal, which puts them in a very difficult position. Durban City are showing much better form with 8 points in their last 5 matches; however, their poor away statistics (22% win rate, 67% of matches without scoring a goal) raise doubts about a certain victory. The hosts have an advantage in possession (51%) and slightly better xG statistics at home, which could help them break the dreadful streak. Considering Marumo's form crisis, but simultaneously Durban City's problems with away performances and scoring goals, the most likely scenario is a draw, which would allow the hosts to stop the losing streak and the visitors to secure a valuable point.
