Young Africans vs KMC Prediction: Yanga Boys will secure all the points here

Yanga Boys will play their first league game when they host KMC at the Benjamin Mkapa National Stadium on Wednesday. The defending champions will be hopeful of retaining the title this season, and it must begin with a win here.

Defending Champions Young Africans won the league title last season with five points over their arch-rival Simba SC. Young Africans picked up seventy-eight points from a possible ninety and got to the final of the CAF Confederation Cup, where they lost (2-2) aggregate to USM Alger.

Yanga Boys lost their pacey striker Fiston Mayele who scored eighteen times last season; however, Ghanaian striker Wontah Konkoni who was the second leading scorer in the Ghanaian league, has been brought in to fill his spot. Young Africans have played four games in all competitions before their appearance here and won all without conceding.

The visitors have struggled in their back-to-back season in the division, and they almost got relegated last season. KMC won the play-off with a (3-2) scoreline to remain in the league.

KMC kicked off their new season with a (1-1) share of the spoils against Namungo on the road. KMC drew the first blood after 68 minutes of play, but the home side levelled eighteen minutes later.

KMC have shown class in their last game but must be careful against a dangerous Young African side.

Over their previous ten meetings, Young Africans have won seven while KMC have recorded a victory and two games ending in a share of the spoils. Their last five meetings have seen less than two goals. Young Africans are the best side in the division and have won their last four games already this season. On the other hand, KMC were fantastic after picking up a point on the road in their opening game. However, this matchup has seen fewer goals lately; Young Africans are the favourite to secure all the points here. Bet on a home win and under 3.5 goals for 1.85.

We expect both sides to settle for a total of under 2.5 goals for 1.72.

A correct score of (2-0) might surface here for 4.50.

Good luck!
