Ngezi Platinum form and stats

Ngezi Platinum have only collected 10 points from their away games in the Premier Soccer League, after 2-4-6 (12 played). The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on the Ngezi Platinum manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

Ngezi Platinum won their last game, 1-0 versus Kariba played at home. Prior to that match, the Ngezi Platinum manager faced defeat when travelling to TelOne and losing 0-1.
