AS Gabes vs ES Metlaoui Prediction: The hosts stand a better chance of amassing the maximum points

AS Gabes will be keen to return to winning ways when they face off against ES Metlaoui at the Gabes Stadium on Saturday. The guests have drawn their last three matches on the road and they’ll strive to at least secure a point here. 

Last five games: LDWLL

The hosts have managed one win since promotion and head here with back-to-back defeats against AS Soliman and Stade Tunisien. Their recent result on the road could have ended in a stalemate, considering how composed they were. AS Gabes have failed to keep a clean sheet in five of their last six league matches.

AS Gabes have picked up five points from a combined eighteen, scoring six and conceding eight. 

The hosts were unbeaten throughout the season on their ground in league two, but they are yet to secure a win at home since promotion. 

Last five matches: LLDDD

Since their (2-0) victory over AS Soliman, ES Metlaoui have been unable to win any of their last five matches. They march here with three consecutive stalemates against Esperance ST, CA Bizertin and Etoile du Sahel. In these matches, they have competed against top sides in the league. More recently, despite being reduced to ten men, ES Metlaoui settled for a share of the spoils against Etoile du Sahel. 

ES Matlaoui have scored four goals this season, of which 90% was on their ground, and they have found the back of the net once over their last three away matches. 

ES Metlaoui have lost twice and drawn once on the road this season. 

ES Metlaoui have won five and drawn once, while AS Gabes have recorded three victories over their previous nine meetings. Both teams have been below par lately, and we are not certain a winner will emerge here tomorrow. AS Gabes have failed to keep a clean sheet over their last seven meetings against the guests and we think the run will continue here.

The hosts will invest all they have to ensure a win against ES Metlaoui, and we are trusting them to win or draw. 

This game will produce a BTTS for 2.07.

We expect to see more goals after the break for 2.20.

Good luck!
