The first of two encounters in the CAF Champions League 2nd Preliminary Round, as the hometeam 1º de Agosto will try to edge Simba in their own ballpark.
This football stadium has grass, which is not Simba's normal surface at their own football field. When appearing on grass Simba have performed like this: Played 25 matches resulting in 11 wins, 3 draws and 11 defeats with the goal numbers 26-21 (scored/conceded).
It's time to recharge all electronic entertainment devices for Simba, who are travelling more than 4100 kilometers to play this game.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
1º de Agosto form and stats
1º de Agosto have not come this way in the CAF Champions League without some hard work on the way, more precisely defeating Red Arrows. Last season their CAF Champions League adventure ended in the 1st round against Kaizer Chiefs.When playing at home in the Girabola, 1º de Agosto have managed 0 wins, 1 draw and suffered 0 defeats from 1 games.
Agosto enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Onze Bravos's place. The match ended 1-0.
Preceding that game was the home draw versus Cubango that ended 0-0.1º de Agosto has scored {0 goals-1} so far and conceded {0 goals-2} from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.
Simba form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Big Bullets in order to reach 2nd preliminary round of CAF Champions League. Simba's mission in CAF Champions League last season failed in the 2nd preliminary round against Galaxy.The story so far for the visiting team on their Ligi kuu Bara travels is 1 win, 0 draws and 0 defeats.
Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Simba goalkeeper Aishi Manula is eager to challenge this, with his 212 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.
Impressive finishing secured the home win 3-0 against Dodoma Jiji in their previous game.
A home win as expected against Big Bullets before that, in the CAF Champions League.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Simba manager Mgunda as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Singida Big Stars.
It's early days yet, but Simba has scored 1 and conceded 0 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
