Ferroviario Maputo vs Black Bulls Prediction: Both teams confident of returning to winning ways

At Estádio da Machava, Ferroviario Maputo will play the Black Bulls in round 18 of the Mozambique Mocambola Championship. Heading into this game, the two teams suffered a defeat in their last game. How will they approach this one?

Ferroviario Maputo's last league game was against ENH Vilankulo, and this team suffered a 2-0 defeat. In that encounter, Ferroviario Maputo conceded twice in the first half, with Luis Parkim putting their opponent in the lead before an own goal secured maximum points for ENH Vilankulo. However, prior league games to that defeat saw Ferroviario Maputo pull off an unbeaten run of seven games, winning five and drawing two.

The Black Bulls' last league game was against Otoho d’Oyo in the CAF Confederation Cup, and they lost. In that encounter, Black Bulls took the lead in the 78th minute through Ejaita Ifoni’s strike. However, two goals in the game's last three minutes for Otoho d’Oyo saw the game overturned against the Black Bulls. Heading into this game, have 32 points from their first 14 matches of the season, leaving them seated 3rd in the standings. 

Black Bulls look like the real deal in this game, and I will trust them. Ferroviario Maputo have surely shown strong play in recent matches, but against Black Bulls, they have not had it easy in recent times. This should be a close game where both teams will work hard to avoid a defeat, and a bet on a few goals is a good option.
