US Monastir
The guests kicked off their season a few days ago against Olmypique Beja and they failed to impress. Both sides settled for (0-0) stalemate as nothing separated them at full time.
US Monastir hired one of the most respected coaches in the Tunisian league, Faouzi Benzarti, in the 2022 season to challenge Esperance ST for the title, which actually played well as they gave Esperance ST a run for their money. US Monastir fought tooth and nail but were unlucky as the champions beat them with just two points to the title.
The Union of Ministries head into this match after they were knocked out by the formidable Al Ahly in the CAF Champions League qualifiers.
The guests only lost to two teams away from home last season, and we expect them to maintain such a record this season.
