The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Marines are in the 7th position while the guests worry at 11th.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Marines form and stats
The story so far for Marines at their home stadium (Stade Umuganda) is 7 wins, 5 draws and 2 defeats.The fans are hoping that Marines will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the National Soccer League game against Mukura. Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Etincelles.
Marines are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home, having created 14 goals in 14 matches. From these home matches, Marines have conceded only 8 goals.
Sunrise form and stats
Sunrise have only collected 13 points from their away games after 3-4-7 (14 played). Sunrise seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?The manager was unhappy after their last game, a National Soccer League match played at their home ground Stade Umuganda. Sunrise suffered a 1-2 loss to Kirehe. Prior to that match, the Sunrise manager faced defeat when travelling to Musanze and losing 1-2.
The visitors have scored 11 goals from 14 away games, an average of less than one per game. 19 goals have been conceded by Sunrise in these games.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Sunrise - Marines 1-1. H2H stats regardless of arena (last seven matches): Marines 1 win, 3 draws and Sunrise 3 victories. As for goals, 2 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 5 games had two or less.Marines missing players
