The visiting Police Rwanda side should be favourites in this visit to AS Kigali, as the away team holds a 8 point advantage from their seven league games this season.
It's no vacation for neither AS Kigali nor Police Rwanda as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
