Mtibwa Sugar form and stats

Mtibwa Sugar's results here at Manungu Stadium in the Ligi kuu Bara have been very modest with 1 victory, 4 draws and 2 defeats. Three draws from their last three home games means a steady supply of points here at Manungu Stadium, but a victory now would be sweet for Mtibwa Sugar.

The supporters are hoping that Mtibwa will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the game against Namungo (placed 4th).

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Simba that ended 0-0.

The manager will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Mbeya Kwanza in only three days.

Mtibwa Sugar has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 3 goals from 7 games. As for guarding their own goal, Mtibwa have only let in 3 goals at home.
