Ethiopia Nigd Bank vs Wolkite Kenema Prediction: A tight one for both sides

The fifth round of the Ethiopia Premier League will feature a meeting between Ethiopia Nigd Bank and Wolkite Kenema. The match will take place at Addis Ababa Stadium. I will describe the match in further detail below, along with the various wagering possibilities that are offered. 

The home team, Ethiopia Nigd Bank, is currently undefeated in the league and will attempt to continue their dominant play when they take the field in this contest. This season, Ethiopia Nigd Bank have already competed in four matches, and their record after those matches reads two wins and two ties. In the matches that they won, Ethiopia Nigd Bank prevailed against Hadiya Hossana and Dire Dawa. In contrast, the matches that they played against Adama City and Defence Force resulted in a stalemate. In the current standings for the Ethiopia Premier League, Ethiopia Nigd Bank are currently in third place with 8 points.

Wolkite Kenema are yet to pick up their first victory of the year, and coming into this game, the away team will be hoping to keep their losing streak from extending any further. Wolkite Kenema faced off against Bahir Dar Kenema in the last league match, and they could only suffer a 0-3 home defeat. The three goals scored by Habtamu Taddese in the first half of the game were enough to put them on the losing side of the match, despite the fact that they played a good defensive game in the second half. Wolkite Kenema enter this game sitting in 15th place in the rankings of the Ethiopia Premier League with two points. In their previous five matches, they have scored two goals but allowed eight goals to be scored against them.

Due to the fact that the winning odds of this encounter appear to be relatively high for either side, this should be a case of survival of the fittest. Nevertheless, when you consider that the home team will have the benefit of playing on their own soil, the away team continues to seem lost, and I do not believe that they will be able to make a difference in this matchup. The home team should come out on top in this match while being able to score two goals.
