CA Bizertin vs EGS Gafsa Prediction: Bottom team fixture have a lot to offer

At Stade 15 Octobre, CA Bizertin will take on EGS Gafsa in round 12 of the Tunisia Ligue Professionnelle 1. Both teams have not had luck in recent times and will hope to get things right here. Below, I will analyze this game and provide betting opportunities. 

CA Bizertin's last league encounter was against JS Omrane, and they settled for a 1-1 draw. In that encounter, CA Bizertin came from behind to take the maximum points, thanks to Ibrahima Cissoko's strike. 

However, this team enters this encounter with no win in each of their matches this season. CA Bizertin lost to Ben Guerdane, Gabes, Etoile Sahel, Zarzis, and Stade Tunisien in that run. In the meantime, their best results were against Etoile Sahel, Esperance Tunis, and Metlaoui, each ending in a draw.  

In home matches this season, EGS Gafsa have two wins and three defeats. In that run, this team scored two goals while conceding three. 

This season, CA Bizertin have five points from eleven matches, leaving them seated in the 15th spot.

EGS Gafsa were on the road against Metlaoui the previous time out and ended on the losing end. In that encounter, EGS Gafsa saw their early lead from Taleb Yasser overturned with a poor second-half performance. In that game, EGS Gafsa conceded just ten minutes into the second half, with Cherif Bodian levelling the score before Ahmed Bouassida's strike denied them a point at full-time. 

Heading into this fixture, EGS Gafsa have one win in their last five matches, coming against US Tataouine. However, while drawing Slimane, other encounters saw them lose to Stade Tunisien and Monastir. 

This season, EGS Gafsa have four points from ten matches. EGS Gafsa scored 18 goals in those matches while conceding 6, as they sit bottom of the standings. 

EGS Gafsa and CA Bizertin have met six times since 2015. EGS Gafsa won once in those encounters, while CA Bizertin also won one. However, settling for draws four times, two games ended goalless, one 2-2 and one 1-1. 

EGS Gafsa, on the road, has no chance to win this game. While CA Bizertin are doing pretty bad at the moment, being at home should be a big boost for them as they have a better team than EGS Gafsa. However, I feel there is a lot to give by both sides, and regardless of how poor their attack has been, their defence will be a huge thing to work on. Expect a hard-fought victory, but a 2-1 win at home for CA Bizertin is a good option.
