3 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Talanta playing as the away team in the Premier League this season.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Talanta, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-2 versus Gor Mahia (placed 3rd).

The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Nairobi City Stars.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eight similar matches played by Talanta in our archives, and the results are: one win for Talanta, two draws and five defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Talanta are hosting Homeboyz in the Premier League only four days away.
