Tabora United vs Mashujaa FC Prediction: The visitors stand a better chance here

With four games left to wrap up the season, Tabora United will ignite their hope of securing a Premier League stay when they face off against a fellow relegation-threatened team at the Jamhuri Stadium on Sunday. Both sides must win here to survive relegation; however, the visitors stand a better chance, considering their recent form. 

Last five games: DLDLL

Unfortunately, the newly promoted side might be on their way to division two, having played six games without a win. Tabora United head here with another humiliating performance against Mtibwa Sugar, conceding three goals without a response. 

Tabora United have retrogressed in recent months and could not win any of their last six games. Tabora United have lost eleven times this season and have drawn the second joint-most games (11) in the league. Tabora United, who came second in the championship last season, have picked up twenty-three points from a possible seventy-eight. Tabora United have won four, drawn six and lost three away from home this season. 

Last five games: LDDLW

The hosts continue their journey of surviving relegation, this time with a resounding victory over KMC on their ground. The win ended their four games without a win as they gravitated to the 13th spot on the log. Mashujaa FC were unbearable for their opponent, who are chasing a top-four finish this season. Mashujaa have now played three of the most dangerous teams in the division, coming off with just a point, and have an easy run in the league. 

They have been playing exceptionally well in recent games but march here with two losses, two stalemates, and a win over their last five games. Mashujaa have been pretty solid offensively but have kept five clean sheets in their previous twenty-four matches. They have picked up twenty-six points from a combined seventy-eight, losing the league's second-most matches (12).

Mashujaa have won once, drawn six, and lost six games on the road this season. 

Over their previous six meetings, Tabora United have won three and drawn three games. The hosts have dominated this encounter but head here as one of the worst teams in the division. The last time they won was against Coastal Union in March. At the same time, Mashujaa head here with a deserved victory over a strong KMC team. They have managed five points over their last five matches but have played against some top teams in the league. 

Mashujaa, to me, look more promising than the hosts; however, we can’t underestimate Tabora United. I believe the visitors might just win either half here for 2.45.

We expect both teams to get a goal apiece for 2.14.

This encounter won’t deprive us of goals; bet on a total of over 2.5 goals for 2.54.

Good luck!
