JKT Tanzania vs Young Africans Prediction: The visitors can be extremely defensive

JKT Tanzania will fight for their first win in 2024 when they face off against Young Africans at the Major General Isamhuyo Stadium on Tuesday. The home side have now gone thirteen games without a win and face a stern test against Yanga Boys. 

Last five games: DLDDD

The hosts continue to struggle since their promotion and are yet to register a win over the last thirteen games. JKT Tanzania head here with three consecutive stalemates, with the most recent against Dodoma Jiji on the road. Before then, they fought back to settle for a tie against a struggling Tabora United. Since the start of this year, JKT Tanzania have picked up six points from a possible twenty-four. They have managed to score in four of their previous nine games. 

The newly promoted team have had a terrible run since the promotion, as they have picked up twenty-two points from a possible sixty-six, scoring sixteen times while conceding twenty-four. 

JKT Tanzania have won two, lost three, and drawn five on their ground. 

Last five games: WWLWW

The Yanga Boys may have won the league after defeating arch-rival (2-1) at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium. They scored twice before the break, while Simba SC responded once to secure the maximum points. The result came after their (0-3) victory over Singida BS on the road. 

Young Africans have now scored in ten consecutive games in the league as they remain at the top of the log. 

They have improved defensively, conceding the fewest goals in the division, and have also been the best offensive side thus far. Yanga Boys have picked up fifty-eight points from a combined sixty-six. Stephane Aziz Ki has either scored or provided an assist in ten consecutive matches for the Young Africans, taking his tally to fifteen goals in the league.

Young Africans have won six and shared the spoils once over their previous seven games. The hosts have been underperforming lately and are back fighting for their lives after their decent start to this campaign. JKT Tanzania have gone seven games on their ground without a win. On the other hand, Young Africans have been in decent shape lately, especially after their (2-1) defeat on the road against Azam FC. They bounced back with back-to-back wins, scoring five and conceding once. 

JKT Tanzania have never lost a game by a two-goal margin except against Young Africans this season; they have been extremely defensive and hardly concede goals. The hosts will come with their usual low block, but we expect the visitors to be prepared and probably get the job done before the break. 

This game will likely end in a total of under 2.5 goals for 1.68.

We expect the visitors to score in both halves for 2.20.

Good luck!
