Young Africans form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here as Young Africans have scored 18 goals to get 28 points from 14 games. The overall stats in the Ligi kuu Bara are 8-4-2 (wins-draws-losses). Young Africans are on a three game winning streak in their home games.

The home team returns after being equal after 90 minutes with Namungo (placed 4th) on their last time out; the Ligi kuu Bara game ended 1-1. Prior to that, an away loss at KMC.

The Young Africans fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 14 matches. Young Africans are not conceding a lot of goals here in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 12 from 14 matches.

Azam form and stats

7 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Azam playing as the away team in the Ligi kuu Bara this season.

Azam had fun at their own home last time out, beating Ruvu Shooting 2-1. A home win before that, celebrating 1-0 vs Alliance.

Azam have scored 14 goals on their travels this season, from 13 away games in the league. It's not easy to score on Azam as they have only conceded 7 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: Azam - Young Africans 1-0. Head-to-head totals (for the last nine meetings): Young Africans won three games, three matches ended with a draw and Azam has three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / six
