Dodoma Jiji and Coastal Union have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Ligi kuu Bara.

Insights:
  • Dodoma Jiji have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded at home.
  • Coastal Union have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Ligi kuu Bara match only three days ago. This match was also played here at Jamhuri Stadium. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Coastal Union have had more rest.

Coastal Union form and stats

Coastal Union have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Ligi kuu Bara, after 1-3-5 (9 played).

Coastal are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the Ligi kuu Bara against Azam (placed 3rd). Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Namungo.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Coastal Union playing away and similar expectations, we found eleven relevant matches. Results were three Coastal Union wins, four draws and four defeats.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Ligi kuu Bara trip to JKT Tanzania.
