After the first game it's AS Kigali - Police Rwanda 3-3 in points. Who will triumph in this second National Soccer League game of the season?
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
AS Kigali form and stats
AS Kigali have collected 3 points from their National Soccer League home games so far after 1-0-0.
A good away victory last time out for Kigali, who won 4-2 against Musanze. Preceding that game was the home draw versus CS Sfaxien that ended 1-1.
As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the National Soccer League game versus Etincelles in only three days. This game is also played here at Stade Amahoro.
At Stade Amahoro, AS Kigali has the goal stats of 2-0 (for/against) from 1 league fixture.
Last season, AS Kigali's league statistics were 7 wins, 12 draws and 4 losses, resulting in a 6th position in the National Soccer League. Over these 23 matches they scored 21 goals and conceded 20. Playing at home last season AS Kigali managed 4-6-2 (win-draw-lost) with 13 goals and 12 conceded.
Police Rwanda form and stats
1 win, 0 draws and 0 losses. That’s the product of Police Rwanda playing as the away team in the National Soccer League this season.
The supporters enjoyed Police's previous game versus Etincelles, a National Soccer League 5-1 win played at home. Prior to that result Police won their away game at Bugesera. The scoreline was 3-1.
As mentioned above, Police was the only team on the pitch versus Etincelles in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Police manager as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Musanze.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Police Rwanda has managed 3 goals and let in 1 from 1 match.
Let's have a look at how Police Rwanda performed last season in the National Soccer League: They landed a 3rd position in the league table after playing out 12 victories, 7 draws and 4 defeats. In total they scored 33 and conceded 21 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 5 - drew 4 and lost 3 with 14/9 goals scored/conceded.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: two - three - five (Kigali wins - draws - Police Rwanda wins). As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.AS Kigali missing players
