Simba form and stats

Simba, who have the fewest conceded goals (12) in Ligi kuu Bara, have been outstanding at home so far with 11 wins, 2 draws and only 0 losses. In general it's been a long time since Simba tasted defeat here at Uhuru Stadium, as they have taken at least one point from their last 19 home games. The team is able to perform also as the away side, as they are nurturing a very healthy winning streak of six straight victories regardless of arena.

Simba are returning here after visiting Tanzania Prisons in a Ligi kuu Bara game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. A strong away win before that one, visiting Mbeya City and winning 2-1.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Ligi kuu Bara game versus Mtibwa Sugar in only three days. This game is also played here at Uhuru Stadium.

With an average of more than two goals per home game (27 in 13 games), Simba's attacking play is working. Simba have showed great defending skills in their home games, allowing the opposition to score only 3 goals.

Azam form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their travels is 6 wins, 8 draws and 3 defeats.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Stand United in their previous outing. The Ligi kuu Bara match ended in a draw 1-1. Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Young Africans.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Azam as they have only managed to score 14 times from 17 away games. It's not easy to score on Azam as they have only conceded 11 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Azam - Simba 1-3. Head-2-head stats last eight meetings: 3 - 3 - 2 (Simba wins - draws - Azam wins). As for goals, 2 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 6 had two or less.
