Kagera Sugar form and stats

There's been little loot from Kagera Sugar's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 8 away games in the Ligi kuu Bara. Kagera Sugar only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 2 draws. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Kagera are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Kagera delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Gwambina (placed 15th) in their previous match; a Ligi kuu Bara game. A 0-1 defeat away at JKT Tanzania before that.
