Kazma form and stats

There's been little loot from Kazma's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 7 away games in the Premier League. Kazma only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 1 draw. Kazma seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

There might be some fixture complaints from Kazma as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Premier League match against Al Arabi (0-3). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Al Shabab wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

Kazma have scored 9 goals on their travels this season, from 7 away games in the league. The Kazma manager has some worries about the defense as 14 goals have been conceded in these travels.
