There should be a significant difference in quality between these teams based on table positions so far, with Simba leading Ndanda by 23 points.
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Ligi kuu Bara match only three days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at KMC.
Simba form and stats
Overall Ligi kuu Bara stats at home this season for Simba, who have the most scored goals (25) in Ligi kuu Bara, are 4-1-0 (wins-draw-losses).
Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper not having conceded a league goal in 450 minutes.
Happy days for Simba in their previous game, a Ligi kuu Bara match away at KMC (placed 17th) that ended with a 2-0 victory. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Lipuli in a game that was won 4-0.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Namungo are coming to town in three days.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (11 in 5 games), Simba's attacking play is working. Simba have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 1 goal.
Ndanda form and stats
Playing away, Ndanda have won 0 games, drawn 2 and suffered 3 defeats in the Ligi kuu Bara this season.
Ndanda are looking to quickly end their 450 minutes long goal drought in the Ligi kuu Bara.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Ndanda, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-1 versus Biashara United (placed 16th). Before that, Ndanda travelled to Kagera Sugar and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Ndanda's away games in the league this season with only 2 goals from 5 matches. As opposed to that, Ndanda have seen the ball go into their own net 6 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last eight meetings: 7 - 1 - 0 (Simba wins - draws - Ndanda wins). As for goals, 2 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 6 had two or less.Simba missing players
