Season ticket holders at Stade Hamda Laouani haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Kairouan languishing in the 12th position so far. The guesting Etoile du Sahel will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Kairouan form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Ligue 1 this season. Kairouan have only managed 2 wins, 0 draws and 5 losses from their games here at Stade Hamda Laouani. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Kairouan with their four defeats in a row. Not since the CA Bizertin game, 95 days ago, have they avoided a loss.
The Kairouan fans got no joy from their last match, a Tunisia Cup game also here at Stade Hamda Laouani: A 0-3 defeat against Club Africain (placed 4th). Heartbreak before that as Kairouan lost 1-2 at CS Sfaxien's place.
The Kairouan fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 8 in 7 matches. 10 goals have been conceded.
Etoile du Sahel form and stats
As the visiting team in Ligue 1 matches, Etoile du Sahel have produced an overall stat of 3-1-3 so far.
Etoile du Sahel has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Korba (after extra-time, 3-5 on penalties) for a Tunisia Cup game that ended a draw (2-2). A home win before that, celebrating 1-0 vs Wydad Casablanca.
It looked so good for Etoile du Sahel vs Korba (after extra-time, 3-5 on penalties), but the job was not completed and victory was lost as a 2-0 lead was turned into a 2-2 draw.
Etoile du Sahel have scored 7 goals on their travels this season, from 7 away games in the league. Etoile du Sahel have conceded 8 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
These teams' last encounter with each other was the Etoile du Sahel - Kairouan 2-0 earlier this season. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: one win for Kairouan, zero draws and nine wins for Etoile du Sahel. Over 2,5 goals: six times; under 2,5 goals: four games.Top Goalscorers
