Simba SC vs Mashujaa FC Prediction: Both teams will bring their A-game, and we expect this fixture to produce goals

Three days after defeating Singida BS, Simba SC will be keen to end Mashujaa's six games undefeated run at the Azam Complex on Friday. This is a must-watch game, as we expect nothing but an entertaining clash here.

Last five games: WWLWW

Since their home loss against Tanzania Prisons, Abdelhak Benchika's men have won back-to-back as they reduced their deficit at the top of the log. Three first-half goals were enough to secure them the maximum points against a dreadful Singida BS. Even though they amassed all the points, it was an uninspiring second half from Simba FC who were relaxed and allowed their opponent to score. 

Simba SC have been underperforming in recent games, as they sit in third spot, seven points behind arch-rival Young Africans. Simba SC have won five, lost twice, and drawn a game at home this season, scoring seventeen and conceding eleven times. 

Last five games: DDWDWW

The hosts continue to work their way up top as they moved to the 11th spot on the log. Mashujaa FC were once again victorious as they scored once to secure all the points against JKT Tanzania. The wins make it six games without defeat and are now one point above the relegation zone. 

They have been playing exceptionally well in recent games and march here with a deserved victory. Mashujaa have been pretty solid offensively and have kept two clean sheets in fifteen of their last seventeen matches. They have picked up twenty-one points from a combined sixty, losing the league's second-most matches (9).

Mashujaa have won once, drawn four, and lost five times on the road this season. 

The reverse leg ended in a slim (0-1) victory for Simba on the road to Mashujaa. However, the visitors are not the team they used to be, as they have been in massive form lately. Mashujaa have had an amazing second half of the season as they are now a point above the relegation spot. At the same time, Simba SC continue to improve with another win over Singida BS. The hosts lost on their ground against Tanzania Prisons before their recent win, and we are so confident they’ll not witness any glitches against their opponent. To the visitors, they’ll probably not sit back and watch Simba SC press them, as we think they’ll play more offensively. This game won’t deprive us of goals as we expect an open encounter; bet on a total of over 2.5 goals for 1.95.

We think the visitors will likely get a goal here; bet on BTTS for 2.12.

We expect Simba SC to win before the break for 1.85.

Good luck!
