Azam are enjoying their stay in the top table places while Coastal Union are more worried about steering clear of relegation. Who wins the prize?
- Azam have not yet lost a game at home.
- Azam have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Coastal Union have scored away.
1-1-6 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Coastal Union when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those eight matches are 2-18 (scored/conceded).
This promises to be an engaging fixture with lots of spark and bustle as both participants are well renewed since they last ran out on the pitch. Bring it on!
Azam form and stats
The home supporters can't complain about results here at Chamazi Stadium as Azam have scored 11 goals to get 17 points from 7 games. The overall stats in the Ligi kuu Bara are 5-2-0 (wins-draws-losses). Two home wins in a row for Azam bring valid hopes of a third.
Azam faced defeat in their previous match, away at Biashara United (0-2).
Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Dodoma Jiji.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Azam matches with similar probabilities have ended with two wins, four draws and zero defeats (from six games).
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Ligi kuu Bara game versus Polisi Tanzania in only four days. This game is also played here at Chamazi Stadium.
The Azam fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 11 goals in 7 league matches. Azam have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 3 goals.
Coastal Union form and stats
The visitors are W2-D2-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Ligi kuu Bara. It's looking increasingly bleak for Coastal Union who now has to deal with a five game losing streak. Mbeya City was the last time a defeat was avoided.
Two away games in a row for Coastal, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-2 versus Geita Gold.
Prior to that match, the Coastal Union manager faced defeat when travelling to Kagera Sugar and losing 1-2.Coastal Union are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 3 goals from 7 away games. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (5 so far).
Head 2 Head
The former head to head game ended Coastal Union - Azam 1-1, earlier this season. Azam-Coastal Union H2H statistics last nine meetings regardless of arena: Azam three wins, Coastal Union four wins, two draws. two of these nine matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).Azam missing players
