KCCA form and stats

3 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of KCCA playing as the away team in the Premier League this season. KCCA seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against URA wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the KCCA manager M. Mutebi as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Onduparaka.

KCCA find the net regularly in their away games. 11 goals from 9 away fixtures in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 10 goals have been conceded by KCCA in these games.

Head 2 Head

The dueling parties have met before this season: KCCA - Mbarara 2-0. Head-2-head stats last seven meetings: one - four - two (Mbarara City wins - draws - KCCA wins). As for goals, one match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six had two or less.
