Simba and Kagera Sugar are both riding high in the Ligi kuu Bara with their 1st and 6th positions respectively. Expect a great game!
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Ligi kuu Bara. That game was an away game at Lipuli, so at least Simba are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
This stadium uses artifical turf, unlike Kagera Sugar's home stadium. The visitors last seven games on artifical turf have ended in 2 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses.
These teams have little in common geographically as Kagera Sugar have to travel 1300 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
