Stella Adjame vs Racing d'Abidjan Prediction: A win for the visiting Abidjan is a good option

In round 2 of the Ivory Coast Ligue 1, Stella Adjame will play Racing d'Abidjan at Stade Robert Champroux de Marcory. Heading into this game, the two teams could not secure a win in their opening-day game. Will either side secure a win in this game?

Stella Adjame opened their season with a 1-1 draw with SOL and will look to get a more favorable result here. In that encounter, Stella Adjame came from behind to take a point thanks to a Kevin Ahyee’s strike that leveled the score after being behind just six minutes into the game. Heading into this game, Stella Adjame have one defeat, two wins and two draws in their last five matches. 

Racing d'Abidjan opened their season with a 1-2 win over Academie de FAD and will hope to get things right here. In that encounter, Racing d'Abidjan went behind before the break, thanks to Daniel Gnahoua’s strike for his side. However, Topio Coulibaly gave Academie de FAD a two-goal advantage, and Racing d'Abidjan could only reduce the deficit through Kouadio N’Guettia’s strike in the 90+2 minute. Heading into this game, Racing d'Abidjan have failed to win any of their last three matches, losing two and drawing one. 

This is an open game for the two teams, but I will back the road side. Racing d’Abidjan have shown character in tough matches, and being on the road should not be an issue for them in this fixture. While Stella Adjame also won the last game of this fixture, I do not see them failing to score here.
