Musanze drew their last game, also a home match. Gasogi United (placed 10th) was the opponent, 0-0 the score. McLuckie has scored in three matches in a row. Ace!

Before that game, the 3-1 home victory against Rwamagana City.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (12 in 5 games), Musanze's attacking play is working. Musanze have conceded 6 in these home matches.
