It's game two of the National Soccer League season and everything to play for. Read our full preview of AS Kigali-Rayon Sports!
- AS Kigali have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded.
- Rayon Sports have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.
It's no vacation for neither Kigali nor Rayon Sports 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.
AS Kigali form and stats
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. AS Kigali have collected 3 points from their National Soccer League home games so far after 1-0-0.
AS Kigali's last game was hosting Rayon Sports and winning 3-1.
Preceding that match was a defeat to Musanze (1-2).The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how AS Kigali have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found nine games) they have won four times, drawn four and lost one.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the AS Kigali at home in the league. 2 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
Rayon Sports form and stats
Let's have a look at how Rayon Sports performed last season in the National Soccer League: They landed a 2nd position in the league table after playing out 15 victories, 6 draws and 3 defeats. In total they scored 38 and conceded 16 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 7 - drew 3 and lost 2 with 14/8 goals scored/conceded. 0-1-0 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Rayon Sports in their National Soccer League matches away.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Sports, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-3 versus AS Kigali.
Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Gasogi United that ended 1-1.We have checked recent matches where Sports have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those two games were zero victories, zero draws and two defeats.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Rayon Sports has managed 1 goal and let in 1 from 1 match.
Head 2 Head
AS Kigali - Rayon Sports 3-1 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: one win for AS Kigali, four draws and five wins for Rayon Sports. Over 2,5 goals: one time; under 2,5 goals: nine games.AS Kigali missing players
