Kotoku Royals vs Samartex Prediction: A tough home match for Kotoku Royals

Kotoku Royals will host Samartex at Cape Coast Sports Stadium. The two teams lost their last match and will seek to get back to winning ways in this match. 

Kotoku Royals haven't been able to get the better of their opponents so far this season, as they've only managed to draw with Nsoatreman and lose four times to Dreams, Bechem United, Accra Hearts of Oak, and King Faisal. With only one goal scored and five goals allowed, Kotoku Royals' performance was dismal. For the current league season, Kotoku Royals have averaged 0.33 goals per game. When it came to discipline, the home team was hit with 8 yellow cards. Kotoku Royals have struggled to maintain possession of the ball this season, averaging just 48.67% of the time.

Samartex enters this game with a winless 0-5 record, having lost two of their last five matches to Asante Kotoko, Bibiani, and Gold Stars FC and drawing three of their other matches against Berekum Chelsea, Aduana Stars and Accra Great Olympics. With 7 goals for and 5 against, the squad finished with a positive goal differential of +2. Samartex averaged 0.67 goals per game while on the road and 1.33 goals per game overall. Eleven cautions and one red card for samartex averages 54.67% ball possession this season, which is quite high.

To my knowledge, this will be the first-ever meeting between the two squads. Nonetheless, we anticipate a close race between the two of them. But despite this, we anticipate a victory and two goals for the home team.
