Here's everything you need to know, and then some, about the Coastal Union - Kagera Sugar game!

Insights:
  • Coastal Union have the most conceded goals in the first half (25) in Ligi kuu Bara
  • Kagera Sugar have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

It's no vacation for neither Coastal nor Kagera Sugar as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

It's quite the trip for Kagera Sugar when visiting Coastal as the cities are 1200 kilometers apart.

Relegation threatens Coastal who should definitely be looking for some points here. For Kagera most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.

Coastal Union form and stats

7-6-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Ligi kuu Bara numbers at home for Coastal Union so far this season.

The Coastal Union supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Mwadui in Ligi kuu Bara and win 5-0. As mentioned above, Coastal Union "killed" Mwadui in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

Heartbreak before that as Coastal Union lost 0-2 at Simba's place.

Coastal has scored 18 league goals at home this season, in 16 matches. From these home matches, Coastal have conceded only 15 goals.

Kagera Sugar form and stats

Kagera Sugar have only collected 15 points from their away games in the Ligi kuu Bara, after 3-6-7 (16 played). Kagera Sugar has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Kagera goalkeeper is eager to challenge this, with his 326 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

It's the second away game in a row for Kagera, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Polisi Tanzania (placed 9th) in the Ligi kuu Bara last time out.

Ahead of that game was the 0-0 draw at home against Ihefu.

The attacking power of Kagera when travelling is not overwhelming with 14 goals scored from 16 league matches away. Kagera have conceded 20 goals in these away matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Kagera Sugar - Coastal 3-1. Head-to-head totals (for the last seven meetings): Coastal won three games, one match ended with a draw and Kagera Sugar has three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: two / five
