Zarzis vs Metlaoui Prediction: Take a chance on Zarzis

Complexe Sportif Abdessalem Kazouz will be the venue for the round 3 Tunisia Ligue Professionnelle 1 encounter between Zarzis and Metlaoui. The two teams will meet for the first time since 2022. Which side wins this game?

Zarzis played Gafsa last weekend, and they secured a 1-3 win. In that encounter, we witnessed a 1-1 draw at halftime, with Amir Al Omrani canceling Yousef Snana’s lead for Zarzis. However, a second-half brace from Achref Jabri was enough to seal maximum points for Zarzis. However, six points out of a possible six for Zarzis put them in the third spot of the Tunisia Ligue Professionnelle 1.

Metlaoui lost to Stade Tunisien the previous weekend and will head into this one, hoping for a win. Youssef Oumarou’s strike was the difference in that game, coming in the 37th minute. However, this team started their season with a 2-0 win over Slimane, thanks to Ahmed Mazhoud and Nassim Chachia’s strike. Heading into this game, Metlaoui have one win, two defeats and two losses in their last five encounters. 

I will take a chance on Zarzis in this game following a strong start to the season. However, Metlaoui have had luck in the past in this fixture, but their recent performances have not been too good. This should be a close contest, but at home, Zarzis look decent and should win.
