Gicumbi form and stats

Gicumbi's first National Soccer League home game here at Saturn Stadion ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats from 15 matches. It's trouble wherever Gicumbi are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.
