Salitas vs Bobo-Dioulasso Prediction: Home team to add to Dioulasso’s woes

In the upcoming round 9 of the Burkina Faso Premier League, we are set to witness a clash between Salitas and Bobo-Dioulasso at the Stade du 4 Août. Join us as we delve into the specifics of this exciting match and explore the various betting opportunities it presents.

Salitas - expected to win

Salitas enters this match with the strong desire to secure a victory after a recent draw against Royal. In the thrilling contest that concluded with a 3-3 scoreline, Salitas found themselves leading 2-1 at halftime, thanks to the efforts of Muhamed Traore and Faical Papou Konate, who both found the back of the net in the first half. Nevertheless, Royal managed to level the score, with Barro contributing a crucial goal. Salitas regained the lead when Mohamed Lamine Ouattara netted, but Royal once again equalized with a 65th-minute goal by Ali Sissoko. Looking ahead to this match, Salitas has experienced a mixed run of form in their most recent five outings. They've secured two wins but have also suffered two losses. Currently, Salitas occupies the 10th position in the league standings, having collected 10 points from their eight matches.

Bobo-Dioulasso - visitors keep struggling

Bobo-Dioulasso finds themselves in the midst of a challenging losing streak, having suffered four consecutive defeats, notably with the last three of those losses resulting in a 2-0 scoreline. Their upcoming task is to reverse this trend and, at the same time, escape the bottom position in the league standings. In their recent encounter, Bobo-Dioulasso faced AS Douanes, where Issouf Sosso delivered a pair of goals for the opposing side, contributing to their downfall. However, it's important to note that in their prior match, Bobo-Dioulasso managed to secure a lone victory, which came against Kozaf in a 2-0 result. Currently, the visiting team has scored a total of six goals in this season but, on the downside, they've conceded 12 goals. The challenge now is for them to find a way to tighten their defense while maintaining their goal-scoring capabilities as they strive to improve their standings in the league.
