Samartex vs Gold Stars Prediction: The home side won’t lose here

Samartex will continue their title defense against Gold Stars at the Nsenkyire Stadium on Wednesday. The hosts have won seventeen of their last eighteen matches on their home turf, and they’ll be keen to maintain such a record against a tough opponent tomorrow. 

The hosts are one of the most consistent teams in the league, and after being knocked out of the CAF Champions League, they’ll now focus their attention on retaining their title. Samartex kicked off their home game against Vision FC, scoring twice and conceding once. Following their (0-0) stalemate on the road against Dreams FC, Samartex scored in the 94th minute to win eight consecutive games at home.

Samartex have picked up four points from a combined six and are in 10th place on the log. 

Samartex have recorded seventeen wins and a defeat on their ground lately. 

Micheal Osei's men picked up a point on the road against Hearts of Lions to maintain their unbeaten run this campaign. The toothless stalemate was after their slim (1-0) victory over newly promoted Basake Holy Stars. 

Gold Stars, who finished in 11th place last season, currently sit at the top of the standings. 

Gold Stars were one of the worst away teams last season and were extremely poor on the road, with one win in seventeen away games. 

Gold Stars have won three and lost once against Samartex over their previous four meetings. The season is still fresh, and it’s hard to tell how strong or good teams can be. However, Samartex have at least made their home turf a refuge with eight consecutive victories lately, they’ll be keen to keep up with the momentum, and we expect them to win and score more than a goal for 2.01.

Gold Stars have been terrible on the road this season, and we can’t see them securing all the points here; bet on a home win or draw and over 1.5 goals for 1.85.

Expect under 1.5 goals in both halves for 1.77.

Good luck
