ASEC Mimosas vs DC Motema Pembe Prediction: The home side won’t lose here

Ivorian side ASEC Mimosas will lock horns with DC Motema Pembe at the Stade FÈLIX Houphouët Boigny Stadium on Sunday. The home side are unbeaten in the league this season but have drawn eight in the last seventeen games. Can the Ivory Coast team kickstart their campaign with a win here?

The home side have been dominating the Ivorian league for a long time, and this season hasn't been an exemption. Despite their success in the division, ASEC Mimosas have made their mark in the CAF competitions.

The Yellow and Black were knocked out of the CAF Champions by Horoya and were matched with fellow league team Sporting Gagnoa in the CAF Confederation Cup. ASEC Mimosas beat their arch-rival in both legs to secure the group stage ticket.

ASEC Mimosas have been unbeaten since the season commenced as they sit at the top of the Ivorian league standings.

The visitors head here after knocking out Flambeau du Centre of Burundi in the final qualifying round. The Congo-based side won on (4-1) aggregate following their resilience performance in both legs.

DC Motema Pembe are struggling in the DR Congo Vodacom Ligue One as they have won two, drawn five and lost once over the last eight games.

They have no excellent record in this competition and have been tipped as the underdogs

The home side are missing key players like Aziz Ki and Karim Konate up front after selling them. ASEC Mimosas have been different since their departure, and since they are short up front, we expect a home win and a total of under 3.5 goals here for 1.87.

ASEC Mimosas have drawn four and won once over their previous five games in the league, and it seems they are yet to pick up this season. However, because of their rich history in CAF Competitions, bet on a home win for 1.40.

We expect the home side to get a halftime win here for 1.98.

Good luck!
