Struggling Kairouan will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Etoile du Sahel in the upcoming league round. It’s 14th vs 4th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
- Kairouan has the most conceded goals (17) in Ligue 1
- Etoile du Sahel have scored more than double the goals of Kairouan.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Kairouan form and stats
Kairouan have played three Ligue 1 home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 0 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Kairouan with their five defeats in a row. Not since the Olympique Beja game, 35 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Three consecutive losses here at Stade Hamda Laouani is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.
In their previous game, the manager M. Okbi led his Kairouan to a defeat in the Ligue 1 match away at Ben Guerdane. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stade Hamda Laouani. Before that game, the home loss against Slimane with the scoreline 2-3.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Kairouan as they are travelling to their away game against CA Bizertin in the Ligue 1. That match is three days after this one.
The Kairouan fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 3 in 3 matches. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Kairouan having conceded 9 goals here at Stade Hamda Laouani so far. Kairouan have allowed more than three conceded goals on average in their home matches so far.
