Desportivo Huila vs Santa Rita Prediction: The two teams are not worth backing

Estádio Nacional da Tundavala will host the Angola Girabola League game between Desportivo Huila and Santa Rita. Off to this game, the two teams are coming off consecutive defeats. Let’s delve into proper match analysis and make predictions. 

Desportivo Huila's last league game was against Kabuscorp, and this team ended on the losing end, 1-0. In that game, a second half Enoque Ramos’ goal was all their opponent needed to take maximum points. Having played three matches this season, Desportivo Huila have lost each, with the first two coming against Petro Atletico and Wiliete. Seated bottom spot in the standings, Desportivo Huila scored only one goal in three matches while conceding five. 

Santa Rita are coming off a defeat against newly promoted Carmona, a game that ended 0-1. Mavambu’s 83rd-minute strike for his side was the difference in that game. In the meantime, Santa Rita started their season with a defeat to Primeiro de Agosto, ending with the same scoreline, 1-0. Heading into this game, Santa Rita scored zero goals and sits 15th.

The two teams have nothing to write home about heading into this game, and it is tough to back either team. Desportivo Huila should have a better chance at home, but their performance in this fixture has not been too good. Expect both teams to be at their best as this is an open encounter, but a win at halftime for the home team in what should be a low-scoring game is a good option.
