Etoile Sahel vs Monastir Prediction: Visiting Monastir will not lose

At the Stade Olympique de Sousse, the action in the Tunisia Professionnelle 1 league shifts to a match between Etoile Sahel and Monastir. The home team has a very minor advantage in this match, while the away team, Monastir, is coming off a victory over Fhman in the most recent round of the Arab Club Champions Cup.

In their previous matches, Etoile Sahel had a record of 3 wins over Stade Tunisien, CS Sfaxien, and Tataouine, 1 loss to CA Bizertin, and 1 tie with Chebba. Etoile Sahel were able to score five goals while only allowing one to be scored against them in that span. During the current league season, Etoile du Sahel has scored 1.64 goals on average per game. In terms of disciplinary actions, the home team was issued 22 yellow cards and one red card. This season, Etoile du Sahel has maintained an average possession of the ball of 58.67%, which indicates that they are good at maintaining the ball.

Monastir comes into this match having won two of their most recent five league matches over Rejiche and Tataouine, losing one Ben Guerdane, and drawing with EO Sidi Bouzid and ES Tunis. When Monastir played their matches away from home, they had a goal differential of 0.36 while scoring 1.21 goals per game on average. The away team were shown a total of 16 yellow cards, but none of the more serious red cards. The percentage of time that Monastir spends with the ball in possession is above average, coming in at 52.00% on a season-long basis.

Etoile Sahel and Monastir have a relatively respectable head-to-head history, as they have met a total of 28 times in the previous seasons, with Etoile Sahel claiming victory in 11 of those games and Monastir claiming victory in 7 of those games. However, a total of ten of the games ended in draws. In the head-to-head matchups between the two teams, Etoile Sahel scored 34 goals, while Monastir was only able to score 28 goals.

Because both teams have been performing so well of late, we need to ensure that we are well prepared for a contest that will be competitive. However, based on their most recent games leading up to this one, we know for a fact that both clubs will score at some point throughout this competition. We feel that Monastir will pull off at least a draw against Etoile Sahel despite the fact that they will be playing away from home and that the odds are not in their favor.
