Adama Kenema form and stats

Adama Kenema have played three Premier League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Kenema has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager and the players.

Kenema are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 202 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by T. Abera).

The fans are hoping that Kenema will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-4 away loss in the Premier League game against Fasil Ketema (placed 1st). Preceding that match was the home game against Wolkite Ketema that was lost 0-1.

As you see from the result above, Kenema suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

The lack of attacking qualities in Kenema means that they have only scored 0 goals in 3 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Adama Kenema's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 3 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

The story so far for the visiting team on their Premier League travels is 1 win, 1 draw and 2 defeats. It's a growing despair in Dire Dawa Kenema as they have recorded three consecutive losses.

Hadiya Hosaena proved too strong as Kenema slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Dire Dawa Stadium. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Sidama Bunna wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.
