Young Africans get ready to host Azam for another absorbing Ligi kuu Bara fixture here at Benjamin Mkapa National Stadium.
- Young Africans have the the best goal difference (+4) in Ligi kuu Bara
This looks to be an exciting fixture with lots of action and bustle as both contenders are well refreshed since they last saw competitive action. Let's start!
Young Africans form and stats
Young Africans have only played one Ligi kuu Bara game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 11 wins, 5 draws and 1 defeat from 17 matches.
The Africans goalkeeper is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 565 minutes without conceding a goal in the Ligi kuu Bara.
A strong away win for Africans against KMC the last match.
Previous to that game, a home match hosting Geita Gold in a game that was won 1-0.Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Ruvu Shooting are coming to town in three days.
Early season league goal statistics from Young Africans's 1 home game: 1 goal, 0 conceded.
Azam form and stats
The Ligi kuu Bara season is young and Azam have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 2 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 1 defeat so far.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Azam, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-1 versus Pyramids FC.
A home win before that, celebrating 1-0 vs Namungo.The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Geita Gold in just three days.
Azam have the goal stats of 2-3 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
