Luanda City vs Sao Salvador Prediction: League experience will be a huge difference in this fixture

Estádio Municipal dos Coqueiros will be the venue for the opening league game between Luanda City and Sao Salvador. In this opener, the two teams will look to open their season with a win. How will they approach this game?

The newly promoted side, Luanda City will look to begin their season with a win at home. The new side is favored here and will be confident they can get the job done despite their poor league experience. In the meantime, this team will have to show a high level of defensive and offensive play. Yet, Luanda City have a very good chance of taking maximum points here, as they take one of the weakest sides in the Girabola League last season.

Sao Salvador will look to open their season with a win, especially with a newly promoted side. In the previous season, Sao Salvador played 28 competitive matches but could only accumulate 31 points and ended up in the 11th spot. In the meantime, this team scored only 23 goals in that run of games while conceding 34. Heading into the new season, Sao Salvador have an unbeaten run of four matches, defeating Santa Rita and Bravos do Maquis. The road team held Primeiro de Agosto and Academica to draw in other encounters. 

Sao Salvador league experience should be crucial in this fixture. While I do not doubt the Luanda City squad and level of play, I still believe that experience will be a huge difference in this game, and I am backing the road team to win. Also, at home, I expect the home team to show some strong offensive game, hence both teams scoring.
