Azam will battle it out with Kagera Sugar in this Ligi kuu Bara game. All you need to know about the match can be found here!
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting Kagera Sugar have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 2-0-5 (win-draw-loss) from seven matches.
Kagera Sugar have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1400 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
