Competition: Tanzania Ligi kuu Bara
Competition: Wed 26.January
Match begins: 15:15 (UTC)
Venue: Kaitaba Stadium (5000 seats)

Kagera Sugar will hope that their home support is enough to get at least a point from this hard battle, vs high-octane Simba.

Insights:
  • Kagera Sugar have the fewest matches over the total-line (0) in Ligi kuu Bara
  • Simba have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded.

This football field has grass, unlike Simba's home ground. The last 25 games by the visitors on grass have given 14 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses.

Simba have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1300 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Ligi kuu Bara game only four days ago. That game, against Mtibwa Sugar, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Simba.

Kagera Sugar form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Ligi kuu Bara this season. Kagera Sugar, who have the fewest scored goals (2) at home in Ligi kuu Bara, have only managed 1 win, 1 draw and 4 losses from their games here at Kaitaba Stadium. With Kagera Sugar having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager .

A strong away win for Kagera Sugar against Dodoma Jiji the last match.

3-3 away at Biashara United before that.

The lack of attacking qualities in Kagera means that they have only scored 2 goals in 6 league home games, less than half a goal per match.
