The club now sits third on the table with 46 points, six behind leaders APR.<\/p>\n<p>With just six game left to decide the champions, the club\u2019s chances of winning the title this season now hangs in balance.<\/p>\n<p>Although Rwatubyaye admits that the title race looks pretty tight for the Blues, he insists that there is still a room to believe.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSix points is a lot. But we are not giving up, nothing is decided yet,\u201d the 25-year-old defender said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe started the season very well but we made some small mistakes which cost us some important points, but we planning to give it all in remaining games,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Rayon want to play Africa club football next season at all cost and it will all depend on how they will performance both in the league and the Peace Cup, two tournaments whose winners are guaranteed tickets in the CAF Champions League and CAF Confederation Cup respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Rwatubyaye, who rejoined the Blues in August 2022 as a free agent after serving out his contract with Macedonian outfit FK Shkupi, admits it would be a total failure if the club doesn\u2019t win a trophy this season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course, it would be a failure if we don\u2019t win any titles this season,\u201d the Rwanda international said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe league title looks complicated but there is still hope. If not, we will try to win the Peace Cup,\u201d he further noted.<\/p>\n<p>Rayon Sports will have to put in some magic to turn the table around to win the title just like they did when they came from 14 points behind APR to clinch the 2016\/17.<\/p>\n<p><b>Rayon Sports remaining fixtures <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Rwamagana FC (Away) (To be confirmed)<\/p>\n<p>April 15: Bugesera FC (Away)<\/p>\n<p>May 6: Espoir FC (Away)<\/p>\n<p>May 20: Gorilla FC (Home)<\/p>\n<p>May 27: Marines FC (Home)<\/p>\n<p>June 3: Sunrise FC (Away)<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/rwanda\">Rwanda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Rwanda.
