An important duel in the bottom section of the Ligi kuu Bara, with both Ndanda and Mbao experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 20th and the visitors in 16th place.
The visiting Mbao played their last game only four days ago, a Ligi kuu Bara match. That game was also an away game, at Namungo. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Ndanda form and stats
Ndanda's results here in the Ligi kuu Bara have been very modest with 1 victory, 3 draws and 4 defeats. Three consecutive losses here is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.
Ndanda lost their last game at Mbeya City (placed 18th) after a 0-1 scoreline. A 0-0 draw away before that, with Tanzania Prisons the opponent.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Ndanda, as the Ligi kuu Bara home game vs Namungo is only three days away.
The lack of attacking qualities in Ndanda means that they have only scored 4 goals in 8 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Ndanda have only conceded 7 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Mbao form and stats
2 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Mbao playing as the away team in the Ligi kuu Bara this season. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Mbao are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.
Mbao play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-3 to Namungo (placed 3rd). The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Simba.
The schedule is very tough for Mbao now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Ligi kuu Bara game at Alliance is waiting in only three days.
The attacking power of Mbao when travelling is not overwhelming with 4 goals scored from 7 league matches away. As opposed to that, Mbao have seen the ball go into their own net 9 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
