Young Africans vs KMC Prediction: Another easy fixture for the hosts

On Sunday, the Yanga Boys will face off against KMC at the Azam Complex. The hosts have kept it simple over their last three games in the league, heading here with two consecutive clean sheets and scoring less than two goals in each of their previous two matches. The Guests, on the other hand, have not won on the road in seven games. 

Miguel Gamando's men got the job done against Kengold FC, scoring once to amass all the points. This was after their (2-0) victory over Kagera Sugar in their opening game of the tournament. 

Young Africans were phenomenal last season as they successfully defended the Tanzania Ligi Kuu Bara title. The Argentine, who lost four games in his entire season, secured the title on Azam’s watch. Young Africans made some fantastic decisions by keeping their key players and bolstering the squad. This will pay off again as the synergy amongst the players is expected to be out of the roof. 

The hosts have been unstable this season, heading here with a negative share of the spoils against JKT Tanzania on the road. KMC couldn’t find their footing and were lucky to have come off with a point. Before then, they lost by four goals against Azam in a disappointing show on their home turf. 

KMC were below par in 2024, which literally cost them a top-four finish. KMC will be keen to prove themselves against a well-organized team and a point here might prove valuable in the long run. 

Over their previous twelve meetings, Young Africans have won nine, while KMC have won once and two games ending in a tie. The guests have been lucky in recent games, and we think a well-drilled team will get the best of them. KMC have been poor this campaign, and they’ll struggle against a fast-paced team. 

Young Africans have not really played any game without the intention of resting players for the continental cup, and they will host the KMC without any travel in mind. We expect a more aggressive attacking approach from the hosts.

This game will produce more than three goals for 3.60.

We expect the hosts to score more than two goals and win here for 2.30.

Good luck!
