Mbeya Kwanza have played 5 Ligi kuu Bara games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 0-3-2 (wins-draws-losses). We have seen two home losses in a row now for Mbeya Kwanza, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

In the preceding match a 2-0 victory visiting Kagera Sugar.Mbeya Kwanza aren't scoring a lot here at Sokoine Stadium in the league, with only 3 goals from 5 games. Kwanza have conceded 6 in these home matches.
Azam form and stats
0 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses. That’s the product of Azam playing as the away team in the Ligi kuu Bara this season. It's all red in the travel logs of Azam, having lost four matches in a row as the visiting team.
Azam lost away at Simba (1-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.
Prior to that match, a home win 4-1 against Ruvu Shooting.The attacking power of Azam when travelling is not overwhelming with 4 goals scored from 5 league matches away. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Azam have conceded 9 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
