Esperance ST vs US Ben Guerdane Prediction: The visitors can’t be underestimated

Esperance ST will host US Ben Guerdane at the Stade Olympique Hammadi Agrebi Stadium on Wednesday. The home side head here after their (2-1) victory over ES Jerba, while the visitors secured the ticket to this round following their win over US Monastir.

The Blood and Gold are one of the best sides in the league this season, despite their slow start. They wrapped up premier league group A with just a defeat in fourteen games and secured the top spot.

Esperance ST head here after their late win over CR Belouizdad in the CAF Champions League. In the round of sixteen, Esperance ST saw off a strong ES Jerba side when they scored twice before a consolation goal from the visitors.

Esperance ST haven’t lost at home this season; they have won six and drawn once.

The Cavaliers finished group B in the second spot after failing to beat AS Slimene in their final game. US Ben Guerdane will feature in the championship round this season and hope for a better outcome this time.

US Ben Guerdane have been solid both home and away this season as they beat US Monastir at home.

They are one of the best away sides, with three wins, a draw and three defeats in the premier league.

Both sides have met seventeen times, with Esperance ST winning eleven and sharing the spoils four times. US Ben Guerdane have managed two victories against the host and are poised to progress to the next round. US Ben Guerdane will take this more seriously than the home side, who play Zamalek three days later. We expect the visitors to qualify. We are trusting the visitors with a win or draw for 1.95.

We expect both sides to get a goal each for 1.90.

The visitors might even secure all the points here for 4.50.

Good luck!
