Insights:
  • KCB have the most points (22) away in Premier League

14 - 9 - 7 with 38-25. What does this mean? Well, these are the statistics for KCB when playing on grass like they will do today. Wins - draws- losses and goals scored-conceded. KCB play their home games on artifical turf so that's why we provide these numbers.

It's no vacation for neither Sofapaka nor KCB as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

2 victories, 3 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Sofapaka have to build on here at Narok County Stadium in the Premier League.

A good away victory last time out for Sofapaka, who won 1-0 against Wazito (placed 15th).

Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Vihiga Bullets.

Trouble hitting the net? In this club's last 13 league games, 11 have seen less than three goals (under 2.5).

The match schedule is unforgiving for Sofapaka as they have a new game in only four days, a Premier League match thankfully also at home. Gor Mahia are visiting.

Sofapaka have scored {6 league goals} here from 8 matches, not a lot. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Sofapaka have conceded 9 in these home matches.

KCB form and stats

Rock solid. That's the only way to describe the travels of KCB so far, with 7-1-0 (wins-draws-losses) so far. Those are Premier League statistics.

KCB are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the game against Mathare United (placed 18th). Those three points felt good as this club had gone three league matches without winning. Jimenez has scored at least one goal for the away side three fixtures in a row. The competence!

Before that, KCB travelled to Wazito and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.

The schedule is very tough for KCB now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Premier League game at Leopards is waiting in only three days.

KCB have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 8 league away games 11 goals have been scored. KCB are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 4 times in 8 matches. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above. It's worth mentioning that 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two contenders are: four wins for Sofapaka, three draws and three wins for KCB. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: six games.
