No payout for Karonga United in their previous match, an away game at Moyale Barracks that ended in defeat 0-2.
Before that, Karonga had a home game versus Mzuni which ended with a victory 2-0.The Karonga United fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 8 matches. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. On the other hand, Karonga have conceded 8 goals.
Ntopwa form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Ntopwa, who have the most conceded goals (30) in Super League, so far with only 2 points returning home. The records show 0-2-6 (win-draw-lose). Football is a nightmare at the moment for Ntopwa who have suffered through a seven match losing streak. If there's light at the end of the tunnel it's certainly not visible for the supporters.
Ntopwa lost away at Chitipa United (0-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.
Prior to that match, the Ntopwa manager faced defeat when travelling to Ekwendeni Hammers and losing 1-2.Many goals are not expected from the visiting Ntopwa as they have only managed to score 7 times from 8 away games in the league. The Ntopwa manager has some worries about the defense as 16 goals have been conceded in these travels.
