- KMC have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Simba have not yet lost a game.
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!
KMC form and stats
The story so far in the Ligi kuu Bara for KMC at their home stadium (Uhuru Stadium) is 2 wins, 0 draws and 2 defeats. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Uhuru Stadium.
KMC are confident in defense, having played 204 minutes without conceding a goal in the league.
KMC shared the glory with Mtibwa Sugar in their last match, an away game that ended all square 0-0.
Before that, KMC had a home game versus Geita Gold which ended with a victory 2-0.Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Ruvu Shooting are coming to town in four days.
The KMC fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 4 in 4 matches. 4 goals have been conceded.
Simba form and stats
The seven points Simba have gathered from their first three away trips in the Ligi kuu Bara is impressive and could lead to great things if the form continues. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Simba, as they have won on their previous two travels.
Simba's last game was the home draw against Young Africans (0-0).
It was a CAF Confederations Cup defeat before that one as the away game against Red Arrows wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.Simba find the net regularly in their away games. 4 goals from 3 away fixtures in the league. Simba are tighter than a frog's bottom, as only 1 away goal have been conceded so far.
