Ulinzi Stars vs Tusker Prediction: Expect a low scoring game

In game 27 of the Kenyan Premier League, Ulinzi Sports Complex will be the venue for the match between Ulinzi Stars and Tusker. Let’s look into the previews of this game and make a prediction. 

Ulinzi Stars' last game was against Sofapaka; in that game, they played to a 1-1 draw. Having taken the lead in the 45th minute of the match through Issa Lumumba, they could not hold saw them concede in the 62nd minute, with Amos Asembeka leveling the scores for Sofapaka. In the meantime, Ulinzi Stars have one win in their last five league games, coming against Bandari. In other games, Ulinzi Stars lost to Kakamega Homeboyz and Kariobangi Sharks while drawing goalless with Police FC.

Tusker are on the back of three straight defeats; in this one, they hope to change the trends. Last weekend, Tusker bottled a 1-0 lead to lose 1-3 at the end. In the meantime, other encounters saw Tusker lose to Kariobangi Sharks and Kakamega Homeboyz. However, their last five games showed that Tusker lost to Muhoroni Youth and AFC Leopards. Heading into this game, Tusker are seated 5th in the league standings with 43 points, coming from 26 matches.

The two teams are not trustworthy, as they come into this game on a run of poor performances. However, they have been the better side all season, and they come here slightly favored, and I expect them to win. While matches between these sides have not produced many goals in the past, this one is likely to end with similar results.
