Sanga Balende are welcoming Simba for another important game after their 0-1 result against 5th-placed Groupe Bazano.
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!
Sanga Balende form and stats
With 2 Super Ligue wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Sanga Balende are certainly not brimming with confidence.
The manager will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Nyuki in only two days.
The Sanga Balende fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 8 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Sanga Balende defense is not exactly impregnable. 15 goals conceded from 8 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Simba form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Simba so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 3-1-7 (win-draw-lose). It's a growing despair in Simba as they have recorded three consecutive losses.
The attacking power of Simba when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 11 league matches away. Simba have conceded 16 goals in these away matches.
