Viper vs TP Mazembe Prediction: Home side will get all the points

Uganda-based side Viper will square off TP Mazembe at the ST Mary Stadium on Sunday. The home team will be hopeful of securing passage to the next group phase in this tournament for the first time.

In April 2022, Vipers won against their rivals KCCA FC at Lugogo stadium (2-1), coming from behind through her captain Halid Lwaliwa and Milton Marisa. Vipers SC went on and lifted the trophy after beating Express FC 3-0 at St. Mary's stadium with four games remaining of the 2021-2022 season.

Viper head into this game after defeating Olympic Real de Bangui on (4-0) aggregate. They are yet to make the group stage in their history.

The Ravens secured their 19th Linafoot title and her eleventh consecutive overall. TP Mazembe is one of Africa's best sides and has won the CAF Champions League five times.

TP Mazembe were knocked out by champions RSB Berkane in the semifinals of the CAF confederation cup last season.

Both sides will clash for the first time, and experience will be the main determining factor here. One thing about African football clubs is that home sides always perform better regardless of how poor they might be. We expect the home side to win for 1.81.

The visitors will have to be careful not to concede many goals, and we expect a total of under 2.5 goals for 1.45.

A halftime draw time might surface here for 1.83.

Good luck!
