Gorilla form and stats

Gorilla have played three National Soccer League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

In their previous game, led his Gorilla to a defeat away at Etincelles. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stade Régional de Nyamirambo. The first loss after going unbeaten in three league rounds.

Before that match, a win away at Police Rwanda.

Rayon Sports form and stats

2 wins, 0 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Rayon Sports playing as the away team in the National Soccer League this season. Sports has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Rayon Sports are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the game against Bugesera (placed 12th).

Prior to that match, the Rayon Sports manager do Carmo faced defeat when travelling to Musanze and losing 0-2.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Rayon Sports manager do Carmo as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Etincelles.

Sports have scored 5 goals on their travels this season, from 4 away games in the league. Rayon Sports struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 6 goals conceded from these games.
