Mzuni form and stats

There's been little loot from Mzuni's travels as they have only collected 3 points from 12 away games in the Super League. Mzuni only have 1 win to counter their 11 defeats and 0 draws. With the Mzuni losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

A loss against Red Lions was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Mzuni are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 6 goals from 12 away games.
