Season ticket holders at Kaitaba Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Kagera Sugar languishing in the 16th position so far. The guesting Mtibwa Sugar will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
These teams have little in common geographically as Mtibwa Sugar have to travel 1100 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

The Kagera fans got no joy from their last match, a Ligi kuu Bara game also here at Kaitaba Stadium: A 1-2 defeat against Mbeya City (placed 17th). The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Dodoma Jiji.
The lack of attacking qualities in Kagera means that they have only scored 2 goals in 5 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Kagera have only conceded 4 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Mtibwa Sugar form and stats
Things could have gone better for Mtibwa Sugar in their Ligi kuu Bara away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right. Mtibwa seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
The Mtibwa goalkeeper is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 180 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
Impressive finishing secured the home win 1-0 against Azam in their previous game. Before that, Mtibwa secured a home win against Namungo with the score 1-0.
Mtibwa are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 1 goal from 3 away games. Mtibwa have conceded 3 goals in these away matches.
