Simba perform at a high level so far being 1st in the table. Coastal Union can look both up and down from their 10th position.

Insights:
  • Simba have the most scored goals (58) in Ligi kuu Bara
  • Coastal Union have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

1-1-7 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Coastal Union when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those nine matches are 3-20 (scored/conceded).
