Rayon Sports welcome Kiyovu SC to Kigali Pele Stadium in week 15 of the Primus National League on Tuesday, December 12. This is going to be the 16th meeting between the two teams since 2016 with Rayon having the upper hand with seven wins, three draws and five defeats. Kiyovu, now sixth on the league table with 20 points after 14 games, have been patchy this season while Rayon have been in fine form before falling to a 2-1 loss to AS Kigali on December 9. They now sit third with 26 points. Form does not count in local derbies and Rayon themselves can attest to it after surprise loss at the hands of the ‘Citizens’ who were deep in the relegation zone. It is going to be an intriguing game with much at stake. During the 2022/23 season, Rayon failed to beat Kiyovu both home and away in the league as the Green Baggies picked four points out of six. The Blues will be hoping to write a new script as they face another litmus test. In terms of player quality, Kiyovu will rely on Burundian striker Richard Kilongozi who has scored in each of his last three games for the club while skipper Olivier Niyonzima will be looking to show what his former side has been missing from him since he left the club IN 2019. Rayon will also count on Joackiam Ojera and the evergreen Heritier Luvumbu who has been arguably the best midfielder in the Primus National League so far this season. If both players have a good day, expect the Blues to flourish. Other Games Musanze vs Police Musanze FC will lock horns with Police FC at Kigali Pele Stadium in a mouth-watering clash. The pair are separated with one point with Musanze FC sitting second with 29 points whereas Police FC are third with 28 points. The game promises to be exciting and it will be a tale of the attack of two teams. Striker Peter Agblevor has scored 10 goals so far in the league and has netted twice in two games since returning from a three-match suspension.

Police FC is a strong team, they are our rivals and so are title contenders. We hope to go all out and beat them. Police will rely on offensive midfielder Muhadjiri Hakizimana who has been in top form since Frank Spittler snubbed him in his national team squad that played the 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Zimbabwe and South Africa.
