AS Kigali host the first leg in this deciding CAF Confederations Cup 2nd Preliminary Round game. Al-Nasr will try their very best to bring a solid result back to Stubhub Center before the return leg in 8 days.
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!
AS Kigali form and stats
Action has already taken place for AS Kigali in CAF Confederations Cup as they have defeated ASAS to reach the 2nd Preliminary Round. Last season their CAF Confederations Cup adventure ended in the 2nd preliminary round against Motema Pembe.AS Kigali have played 1 National Soccer League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 1-0-0 (wins-draws-losses).
Kigali are returning here after visiting Rutsiro and winning with a 2-1 scoreline.
A home victory before that one, as anticipated. The team were huge favourites against ASAS and won 1-0. The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how AS Kigali have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 9 games) they have won 4 times, drawn 4 and lost 1.
The manager André will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Rayon Sports in only three days.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the AS Kigali at home in the league. 2 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
Al-Nasr form and stats

A 0-3 defeat away at Al-Akhdar before that.Head 2 Head
