Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Etincelles in 9th and Gasogi United in 7th place.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Etincelles and Gasogi United.
Etincelles form and stats
1-1-2 (win-draw-lost) are the National Soccer League numbers at home for Etincelles so far this season. It's trouble wherever Etincelles are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. Etincelles are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Stade Umuganda, having lost their two previous games here.
The fans are hoping that Etincelles will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the National Soccer League game against Mukura (placed 3rd). Before that game, the home loss against Police Rwanda with the scoreline 0-1.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Etincelles as they are travelling to their away game against Espoir in the National Soccer League. That match is four days after this one.
Etincelles has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 2 goals from 4 games. From these home matches, Etincelles have conceded only 3 goals.
Gasogi United form and stats
Still no away game victory in the National Soccer League for Gasogi United with 1 draw and 2 losses from their first 3 attempts. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Gasogi United are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
Gasogi United won their last game, 1-0 versus Gicumbi played at home. A draw for Gasogi United before that, at their own venue hosting Musanze (1-1).
The schedule is very tough for Gasogi United now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A National Soccer League game at Heroes is waiting in only four days.
Gasogi United are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 3 away goals from 3 games (in the league). Gasogi United have conceded 5 goals in these games.
