Kairouan form and stats
The Ligue 1 season is young and Kairouan, who have the fewest scored goals (2) in Ligue 1, have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Kairouan are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
Kairouan are looking to quickly end their 225 minutes long goal drought in the Ligue 1.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Kairouan, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-2 versus Rejiche (placed 5th). Prior to that match, the Kairouan manager R. Mhamdi faced defeat when travelling to Métlaoui and losing 0-2.

After this away game Kairouan return home for a Ligue 1 game against Slimane. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Goals are few and far between in Kairouan's away league games. Only 1 goal from 3 travels. Kairouan struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 5 goals conceded from these games.
