Azam Tigers played 1-1 against Kamuzu Barracks last week, a game to remember. Next up is this strong Karonga United side.
- Azam Tigers haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.
- Karonga United have won significantly less corners away then at home.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Karonga United have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
