Ethiopian Insurance vs Wolkite Kenema Prediction: Home team has the advantage

In the round 26 encounter of the Ethiopia Premier League, Ethiopian Insurance and Wolkite Kenema will compete against each other at Addis Ababa Stadium.

Hawassa tied Ethiopian Insurance in a match that was played away from home and resulted in a tie score of 2-2. During that particular game, Ethiopian Insurance took the lead on a penalty kick taken by Simon Peter in the second minute of play. However, Seid Hassen equalized the score for Hawassa only three minutes after that goal was scored, and the score remained 1-1 when the first half came to a conclusion. Simon Peter scored from the penalty spot once more, putting Ethiopian Insurance in the lead for the second time. Despite this, Seid Hassen scored in the 73rd minute to equalize the score for the second time and cancel out the lead. Ethiopian Insurance are currently ranked third in the Ethiopia Premier League rankings after playing 25 matches and accumulating 45 points so far this season.

Wolkite Kenema are coming off a defeat against Dire Dawa in a match that was played at home and concluded 1-2. Iyasu Legesse gave Dire Dawa the lead with a goal in the 38th minute of that match, which resulted in a loss for Wolkite Kenema at the half. Despite this, Surafel Getachew was able to double Dire Dawa's lead in the 53rd minute of the second half, which was a much more frantic half than the first. In spite of this, Getaneh Kebede scored a goal for Wolkite Kenema in the 80th minute as a consolation, which cut the margin in half. In their last five matches, Wolkite Kenema have now scored six goals but have allowed nine against them.

In the first leg of this competition, Wolkite Kenema and Ethiopian Insurance only faced each other once, and Ethiopian Insurance emerged victorious by a score of 1-2.

When compared to Wolkite Kenema, which has been struggling with their play recently, the home squad is in significantly better shape. As a result, the high odds of Wolkite Kenema do not tempt me in the least. My wager is for Ethiopian Insurance to come out on top with over 2.5 goals scored.
