It's the first fixture of the new campaign for Kagera Sugar and Young Africans. The canvas is empty, the potential infinite.
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.
Kagera's stadium, Kaitaba Stadium, has a grass surface. Young Africans have artifical turf on their own stadium. This might or might not make a difference, and to help evaluate that we give you the recent performance numbers for Young Africans when playing on grass; 14 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses from 26 matches. They have scored 29 goals in these games and conceded 16.
It's quite the trip for Young Africans when visiting Kagera as the cities are 1300 kilometers apart.
