Match begins: 12:00 (UTC)
Venue: Green Stadium (5000 seats)

The season has been a struggle for Mara Sugar so far, and the same description fits Assad. These struggling sides hope for some crucial points here.

Insights:
  • Mara Sugar have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded at home.
  • Assad have yet to win a game away.

These are full days for the team playing at home, as they were in action only four days ago in the Super League. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Mwatate United.

Assad form and stats

There's been little loot from Assad's travels as they have only collected 3 points from 6 away games in the Super League. Assad only have 0 wins to counter their 3 defeats and 3 draws.

Assad are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the game against Modern Coast Rangers (placed 13th).

Before that, Assad travelled to Muhoroni Youth and returned home with a draw after the game finished 2-2.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Super League trip to Shabana.
