Kwara United form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Kwara United so far with only 12 points returning home. The records show 3-3-6 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Kwara's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Kwara are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the Npfl against MFM (placed 11th).

Prior to that match, the Kwara manager A. Biffo faced defeat when travelling to Ifeanyi Uba and losing 1-2.

The attacking power of Kwara when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 12 league matches away. Kwara have conceded 15 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

The teams have played each other before this season, with the result Kwara United - Lobi Stars 2-1 entered in the official records. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Stars won four games, three matches ended with a draw and Kwara United has three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: four / six
