AS Douanes vs Etoile Filante Prediction: Both sides chances are high

The upcoming round 9 of the Burkina Faso Premier League is set to take place at the Stadium Issoufou Joseph CONOMBO, where AS Douanes and Etoile Filante will go head-to-head. Both teams are entering this match on the back of recent victories, which adds an extra layer of anticipation to this contest. The question now remains: which side do you believe will emerge victorious in this encounter?

AS Douanes is coming off a triumphant victory against Bobo-Dioulasso, which concluded with a 2-0 scoreline. In this particular match, Issouf Sosso showcased an exceptional performance, securing a brace that proved to be more than sufficient for the home team to clinch the win. Following this impressive triumph, AS Douanes has now secured three wins in their most recent five matches, with two other notable victories achieved against Salitas and Sporting Cascades. This string of successful performances has positioned AS Douanes firmly in second place on the Burkina Faso Premier League standings, boasting a total of 17 points. So far this season, the home team has been productive in front of goal, notching a total of 12 goals. Conversely, they've demonstrated defensive prowess by conceding just three goals in their eight matches.

Etoile Filante is riding high on the back of a hard-fought victory against USFA, securing a 1-0 win in their most recent match. It's worth noting that this marks the second consecutive match where Etoile Filante emerged victorious with a 1-0 scoreline, the previous one being against Rahimo. However, it's essential to acknowledge that before these two impressive victories, Etoile Filante experienced a loss to Royal and shared points in draws against Kadiogo and ASF Dioulasso. Over their last five matches, Etoile Filante's defense has been rock-solid, conceding just one goal. On the offensive front, they have managed to score two goals. This defensive stability and recent consistency suggest that Etoile Filante is in fine form and a team to watch in the upcoming matches.

Both teams have been in good form recently, and we can certainly anticipate a highly competitive match in store. Meanwhile, the home team is likely to leverage the advantage of playing on their own turf, leading me to expect a victory for them in this encounter. Additionally, considering that Etoile Filante has displayed remarkable defensive strength in recent matches, I believe they will maintain a similar level of performance here, making a wager on a low-scoring match a viable option as well.
