US Monastir vs Sportif Sfaxien Prediction: The hosts are expected to draw the first blood here

US Monastir will face off against Sportif Sfaxien at the Stade Mustapha Ben Jannet Stadium on Sunday. The hosts will be keen to maintain their eight games unbeaten run against their guests when they host them tomorrow. 

Last five matches: DWWWD

Mohamed Sahli's men maintained their momentum in the league but, this time, settled for a share of the spoils against Club Africain on the road. It was a decent result even though the game didn’t witness any goal. Before the toothless stalemate, US Monastir had scored six times across their last three games in the league. 

US Monastir are among the few teams yet to taste defeat since the season began, and we expect them to keep up with the pace here. 

US Monastir have won three consecutive matches on their home turf. 

Last five games: LWDDD

The visiting side are still yet to find their rhythm this campaign, heading here with a win over their last five matches. CS Sfaxien have settled for draws against Club Africain, Zarzis and Olympique Beja—CS Sfaxien march here with a toothless stalemate against Olympique Beja at home. Three consecutive shares of the spoils don’t befit one of the most successful teams in the history of the tournament. CS Sfaxien have picked up ten points from a combined twenty-seven, scoring six and conceding four. 

CS Sfaxien have lost once and drawn twice over their previous three games on the road. 

Over their previous twenty meetings, US Monastir have won ten while Sportif have won five and drawn five. US Monastir made some tactical errors that cost them against Club Africain, and we think they could have won all the points, while Sportif Sfaxien failed to win the third consecutive league game. US Monastir will strive to maintain their decent run against CS Sfaxien, and we believe they stand a greater chance here.

We also think this game will only produce a goal for 1.91.

Both teams might settle for a halftime stalemate here for 1.75.

Good luck!
