Last five games: WDWWD

Since the (1-0) defeat against Etoile du Sahel in their opening game, Sportif Sfaxien have won three and drawn three matches. They recently settled for a toothless draw at home against US Monastir. Maurizio Jacobacci's men deserved all the points, especially after their penalty miss just before the break. Sportif Sfaxien have won once and drawn three in the last four home games.

Faouzi Benzarti's men have been fantastic since the beginning of this round and have won five, drawn a game, and lost just once. Etoile Sahel drew for the first time in this round as they failed to capitalize on the home side's red card in the 14th minute. It was a devastating result for them despite being on the road. The visitors have scored seven and conceded just two times this season, winning five matches while losing once.

Etoile du Sahel are far better than last season, and we can see them competing against the top guns this season.

Their last twenty games have seen Sportif Sfaxien with eight wins, while Etoile Sahel have recorded six victories and six games ending in a deadlock. Both sides were poor in their last game and are desperate to bounce back here. Etoile du Sahel have won their previous three games against the home side. The home side haven’t conceded more than once at home this season, and we have a feeling this game will end in a total of under 2.5 goals for 1.40.

Both sides will be pleased with a point apiece for 2.65.

Bet on a halftime draw here for 1.85.

Good luck!
