The visiting Azam played their last game only four days ago, a Ligi kuu Bara match. That game, against Mbeya Kwanza, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Azam.

It's the second away game in a row for Azam, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Mbeya Kwanza (placed 11th) in the Ligi kuu Bara last time out.
Prior to that match, the Azam manager Lwandamina faced defeat when travelling to Simba and losing 1-2.The attacking power of Azam when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 6 league matches away.
