The story so far for Kariobangi Sharks at their home stadium (Moi International Sports Centre) is 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Kariobangi Sharks, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Kariobangi Sharks drew their last game, 3-3 away at Ulinzi Stars. Preceding that match was a defeat to KCB (2-3).

Nakumatt form and stats

Nakumatt, who have the most conceded goals (78) in Premier League, have only collected 7 points from their away games after 2-1-11 (14 played). It's looking increasingly bleak for Nakumatt who now has to deal with a five game losing streak. Zoo Kericho was the last time a defeat was avoided.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Premier League home defeat versus Leopards with 0-2 on the scoreboard. Preceding that, the 1-3 home loss versus SoNy Sugar.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Nakumatt manager as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Ulinzi Stars.

Nakumatt have scored 14 goals on their travels this season, 14 away games. Nakumatt have conceded 33 goals in these games.
