Both teams are enjoying a good season so far and games like this could be decisive. Here's the preview for Young Africans - Namungo!
It's no vacation for neither Africans nor Namungo as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Young Africans form and stats
Young Africans have collected 29 points from their Ligi kuu Bara home games so far after 8-5-2.
Africans drew their last game, also a home match. Azam (placed 2nd) was the opponent, 0-0 the score. A 1-1 draw away before that, with JKT Tanzania the opponent.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Africans, as the Ligi kuu Bara home game vs Ndanda is only two days away.
Africans are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 18 goals in 15 games. Africans are not conceding a lot of goals here in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 12 from 15 matches.
Namungo form and stats
The visitors are W5-D5-L5 on the road this term. That's in the Ligi kuu Bara. Things are running smoothly for Namungo who hasn't tasted defeat in their last 14 matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Simba. Namungo are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played seven in a row without losing.
The supporters enjoyed Namungo's previous game versus Kagera Sugar (placed 9th), a Ligi kuu Bara 2-0 win played at home. Preceding that game, the 2-2 draw paying a visit to Coastal Union.
Namungo has another fixture away, a Ligi kuu Bara game, against Ruvu Shooting in just three days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
The visiting Namungo have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 17 goals from 15 games. 18 goals have been conceded by Namungo in these games.
