Head-to-head statistics Tunisia - Uganda

Tunisia: five straight defeats and finishing woes
Tunisia come into this match on the back of five consecutive defeats. Across that run they have scored just two goals, while regularly allowing opponents to create plenty of chances. The World Cup matches against Japan, Belgium and Sweden were particularly difficult, with the defence struggling under pressure. The attack has offered little help in lifting them out of this slump. In their last five matches, Tunisia have not scored more than one goal in any game. Even at home, a sudden improvement in their scoring looks unlikely.
Match Results: Tunisia

Uganda: scoring more often, but still searching for a win
Uganda's recent form has also been inconsistent. In their previous five matches they failed to win a single game, though they did score five goals and found the net at least once in three of those fixtures. Compared to Tunisia, the visitors' attack looks slightly more lively. The problem lies elsewhere - their defence has also been far too unreliable. Uganda conceded in all five of those matches, letting in at least three goals against Nigeria, Tunisia and Morocco. So even when they produce decent moments going forward, holding on to a result proves difficult.
