AS Marsa vs Olympique Beja Prediction: Beja won’t lose despite being on the road

AS Marsa will play Olympique Beja at the Stade Abdelaziz Chtioui in a relegation group game of the Tunisia Ligue Professionnelle 1. In this game, the odds of winning favor the hosts. However, can the visiting side turn the table?

AS Marsa will come into this game hoping they can finish their season on a strong note. The last time this team played in the league, AS Marsa lost to Slimane in a 1-0 encounter. However, that defeat was their second in recent times, as this side were also defeated by Gafsa in another encounter in their last five. Despite those poor results, it is worth noting that this team picked up maximum points in their matches against US Tataouine, Metlaoui, and OC Kerkennah. Regardless, AS Marsa are seated in the bottom spot of the relegation group standings with 12 points from 11 matches.

Olympique Beja will look to return to winning ways following a defeat at the hands of Metlaoui last time out in the league. In that game, Olympique Beja conceded in the 17th and 47th minute, with Hyathem Mhamdi and Chance Mondzenga scoring for their opponent. However, Rabil Homri pulled one back for Olympique Beja in the 65th minute of the game, and despite Haythem Mhamdi’s red card in the 70th minute of the game, Olympique Beja could not still pick a point from that encounter. Now, looking at their last five league games, Olympique Beja have won three and lost two. This team scored eight goals in those matches while conceding four. 

The visiting team have a better chance of winning here despite being on the road. While AS Marsa have been their best version of themselves at home turf recently, I feel taking on a strong side like Olympique Beja wil be a tough job, considering it is impossible to avoid relegation any longer. Therefore, with visiting Olympique Beja being the better team, take the road team to secure at least a point in a match where both teams should have their chances in front of goal.
