The overall stats in the Premier League are 4-4-0 (wins-draws-losses). Ulinzi Stars has a nice streak going on as they have played 13 consecutive games without losing (regardless of home/away).

Wazito form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Wazito so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-4 (win-draw-lose).

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Wazito manager as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Leopards.
