Ulinzi Stars perform significantly better in away fixtures than Mathare United does at home. The hosts possess a disastrous home record, suffering 67% losses with only 33% wins, conceding an average of 1.17 goals per match. Conversely, Ulinzi Stars display superior efficiency on the road with a 38% win rate and a neutral goal difference (GD=0), averaging 1 goal per away match. Mathare United remains winless in their last three home games, while the visitors have demonstrated greater stability over their last eight away outings. Key differentiators include Ulinzi Stars' higher scoring output (15 season goals vs. 9 for the hosts) and superior away clean sheet percentage (38% vs. 33%). While the data supports an away victory, the poor recent form of both sides suggests a draw remains a plausible outcome.
