Club Africain vs ES Metlaoui Prediction: The hosts will bounce back from their recent loss here

Club Africain will face off against ES Metlaoui in what seems to be a must-win game at the Stade Olympique Hammadi Agrebi Stadium on Sunday. After suffering their first defeat of the season against rival Stade Tunisian, the hosts must respond positively against their guests tomorrow in front of their home supporters.

An era did come to an end as David Bettoni's men bowed to their first defeat of the season. It was a bad day at the office for Club Africain, who were outplayed by their arch-rival on the road. They conceded five shots at goal and managed just one against their opponent in a (1-0) loss away from home. This was after their (4-2) victory over AS Soliman on their home turf. 

The hosts lost once in their last fourteen consecutive games in all competitions, becoming one of the only three teams to have done that. Club African have scored fourteen times this campaign and have conceded four. Club Africain have managed just three wins on their ground over their last five matches.

After eight consecutive games without a breakthrough, ES Metlaoui returned from a goal down to secure all the points against AS Gabes at home. ES Metlaoui conceded with just seventeen minutes on the pitch; however, they scored twice after the break to amass all the points. ES Metlaoui have drawn the joint most games since the league began, and they are more than happy picking up a point than losing the game. 

ES Matlaoui have scored seven goals this season, of which 90% was on their ground, and they have found the back of the net five times over their last seven matches. 

ES Metlaoui have drawn twice and lost three times over their last five away matches. 

Club Africain have won twelve, while ES Metlaoui have managed three victories and five games ending in a tie over their last twenty meetings. Club Africain were nowhere near their best against Stade Tunisien as they managed just a shot at goal. They can’t afford to drop points against the guests who have failed to win any of their games away from home.

We expect well-drilled defensive tactics from the guests, who are known for sharing the spoils, and I think the hosts won’t be able to score as many goals as possible.

This game will produce less than a goal before the break for 2.17.

I expect a correct score of (2-0) here for 4.60.

Good luck!
