Kabylie vs Esperance Tunis Prediction: Both Teams will find the back of the net

Kabylie and Esperance Tunis are the first teams to face off in the opening leg of the CAF Champions League quarterfinals. The visitors, Esperance Tunis are favored to win, while the home team are the underdog.

In the group stage of this tournament, Kabylie faced a number of challenging opponents. However, their outstanding performance garnered them second place in Group A, three points behind Wydad. Three victories, including one against Wydad in their first group stage match; two losses; and a draw against Petro Atletico in their second group stage match comprised the host team's six group stage matches. However, now that they have their sights set on the semi-finals, a victory at home would offer them a boost heading into the second leg in Tunisia.

Even though Esperance Tunis have a little advantage at this venue, this does not guarantee that they will maintain their advantage on the road. After finishing first in CAF Champions League Group D with 11 points, the side that is traveling will now have reason to believe that they are in a position to have an edge before playing Kabylie at their home stadium in Tunisia. Six goals were scored by Esperance Tunis in their matches during the group stage, while the team also allowed four goals to be scored against them. The visiting squad now have just two wins coming into this match, having taken their recent matches into consideration, with their most recent being a loss to Olympique Beja.

Since 2019, the two teams have competed against one another twice, with each side taking home one victory. In the games between the two teams head-to-head, Kabylie scored one goal, and Esperance Tunis also scored one goal.

Because of the close similarities in the quality of play displayed by both teams, the outcome of this contest is anyone's guess and might go either way. Despite this, we put our money on the home team because it is quite rare for them to falter when playing on their own field. In the meantime, we anticipate a game with few goals being scored, and there is a decent chance that the first half will conclude in a draw, with the overall score being 1-0.
