Salitas vs ASF Dioulasso Prediction: Home team will not disappoint

Salitas will face ASF Dioulasso in match 27 of the Burkina Faso Premier League at the Stade du 4 Août. Despite coming off a tie with Royal, the visiting ASF Dioulasso are heavy underdogs here.

The most recent match that Salitas played in was against Kadiogo, and the score was 2-1. In that match, Salif Bagate scored for Salitas in the 29th minute to give his team the lead. The score was 1-0 when the first half was over, and then Pape Badji scored the winning goal for Salitas in the 66th minute of the second half. Despite this, Kadiogo were able to cut their deficit thanks to a goal scored by Sidi Ben Chakour Diasso in the dying minutes of the game. Salitas have now won three of their previous five matches, losing to Bobo-Dioulasso and also drawing with Sonabel Ouagadougou in that space of time.

After playing to a series of ties, which reached four over the course of the previous weekend versus Royal, ASF Dioulasso will be hoping for a victory this time around. The remaining matches, however, including those against RDF, Kadiogo, and Majestic, all ended in ties. In fact, their most recent victory in the Burkina Faso Premier League came in a match that was played against Etoile Filante and finished with a score of 2-0 in February. ASF Dioulasso scored four goals throughout the course of five matches while also allowing two to be scored against them. With 33 points accumulated through 26 games, ASF Dioulasso are currently in the eighth position in the league standings.

Since their first encounter in 2017, these two teams have met eleven times. On the other hand, Salitas can brag about winning six of the matches, while ASF Dioulasso only have three victories to their name. The other two encounters both ended in draws. During those contests, Salitas did exceptionally well to score 20 goals, while ASF Dioulasso were able to register eleven goals for themselves.

Even though ASF Dioulasso have been a very strong defensive team, we anticipate that the home team will emerge victorious in this match. Despite the fact that few goals are anticipated, there is still a good likelihood that Salitas will score two goals, even with the goalkeeper's best efforts.
