ES Tunis form and stats

Rock solid. That's the only way to describe the travels of ES Tunis so far, with 8-1-1 (wins-draws-losses) so far. The away team, who have the most points (25) away in Ligue 1, have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 8 wins, 1 draw and only 1 loss. The away team travel with confidence. Not since the Al Ahly game have they lost an away game, meaning ES Tunis has taken points from 16 away matches in a row.

ES Tunis are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the Ligue 1 against Stade Gabesien. That result followed a home victory 3-1 versus Monastir in the Tunisia Cup.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the ES Tunis manager M. Chaabani as the team has another away game coming up in only one day, this time against CS Sfaxien.

ES Tunis have scored 14 goals on their travels this season, 10 away games. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (6 so far).
