St. George vs Mekelle 70 Enderta F.C. Prediction: St. George eye another home win

Addis Ababa Stadium will host the Ethiopia Premier League round 3 encounter between St. George and Mekelle 70 Enderta F.C. This will be the first time these two teams will face each other since 2020. Which team will win this game?

St. George secured their first win of the season against Welwalo Adigrat the previous time out, and they will look to keep things running. In that game, St. George were held to a 1-1 draw at halftime, with Kirubel Wondimu canceling Tilahuni Fitsumi's lead for this side. In the meantime, St. George needed a 72nd-minute strike from Amanuel Erbo, which was good enough to secure maximum points for this side. In their first two matches this season, St. George have three points, scoring three and conceding three. 

Mekelle 70 Enderta F.C. are seeking their first win since their return to the Premier League. In their opening day game, this team hosted Hadiya Hossana and lost 0-1. However, their week two game against Fasil Kenema on the road ended in a 1-1 draw. Heading into this road game, Mekelle 70 Enderta F.C. will look to take a positive result despite having failed to win in this fixture since 2017.  

St. George are still the team for this job in this game, especially given their home-turf advantage. The two teams have not found their footing this season, but it is fair to say St. George look very decent at home, and I trust them here. This should be a competitive game, but I do not see a lot of attacking plays; hence, a bet on a few goals.
