The Mbeya City manager attacks this game with the team placed 13th so far. In the visitors dressing room Biashara United are in 20th place before this match.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Mbeya City and Biashara United.

It's quite the trip for Biashara United when visiting Mbeya City as the cities are 1000 kilometers apart.

Mbeya City form and stats

Two Ligi kuu Bara home games so far for Mbeya City, who are yet to win here at Sokoine Stadium. Only 2 points so far. The trend of drawing games is also valid regardless of arena as Mbeya City has five draws from their last five matches. The home fans are hungry for more even though Mbeya City have been steadily collecting points here at Sokoine Stadium through three straight draws.

The home supporters saw a 0-0 draw versus Biashara United in the Ligi kuu Bara last time out and are looking for a win here. A 1-1 draw away before that, with Mtibwa Sugar the opponent.

This is expected to be a close game, with Mbeya City perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Mbeya City as a small favourite), we find two games. Mbeya City has won 0 of these, drawn 2 and lost 0.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Mbeya City at home in the league. 1 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Biashara United form and stats

The Ligi kuu Bara season is young and Biashara United, who have the the worst goal difference (-6) in Ligi kuu Bara, have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 2 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 1 defeat so far. Visiting Biashara United has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

Biashara United are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 0-0 draw at Mbeya City (placed 13th). A 0-2 loss hosting Simba before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Biashara United playing away and similar expectations, we found three relevant matches. Results were 0 Biashara United wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat.

1 goal so far away for Biashara United, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 2. All from 2 league matches away.
