A strong away win before that one, visiting Marines and winning 2-1.

Espoir form and stats

Playing away, Espoir have won 1 game, drawn 3 and suffered 0 defeats in the National Soccer League this season. One point away has become something of a habit for Espoir who have played out draws in their last three away games.

Espoir won their last game, 3-1 versus Bugesera played at home.

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Rutsiro that ended 2-2.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Espoir have scored 4 goals in 4 league games away. The Espoir defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (2 goals in 4 games).

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: seven wins for APR, one draw and two wins for Espoir. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: eight games.
