Marines form and stats
The story so far in the National Soccer League for Marines at their home stadium (Stade Umuganda) is 3 wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats.
Marines lost their last game at Gasogi United (placed 9th) after a 2-3 scoreline.
Preceding that match was a defeat to Espoir (0-1).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 Marines have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found twelve games) they have won four times, drawn four and lost four.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Marines as they are travelling to their away game against Mukura in the National Soccer League. That match is four days after this one.
Marines have scored 7 league goals here from 8 matches, not a lot. Marines have conceded 11 in these home matches.
Gorilla form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Gorilla so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-4 (win-draw-lose).
This match can not go any worse than the last one, the home defeat versus Kiyovu Sports with 1-2 on the scoreboard.
Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Espoir.We have checked recent matches where Gorilla have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those five games were zero victories, two draws and three defeats.
Gorilla have another fixture that requires travelling in just three days, a National Soccer League fixture vs AS Kigali. A hard calendar for the visiting team!
The visitors have scored 5 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (6 so far).
