ES Zarzis vs Etoile du Sahel Prediction: The hosts are well motivated for this evenly contested fixture

The newly promoted ES Zarzis will face off against Etoile du Sahel at the Mustafa League Stadium on Sunday. The guests who have been uninspiring lately must be at their very best to stand a chance of securing at least a point against a solid opponent. 

ES Zarzis (1st)

Last five matches: LWDWW

For a newly promoted team, ES Zarzis have been one of the best sides this campaign, and since they suffered their first league defeat, Club Africain, ES Zarzis, have gone three games without a loss. They march here with a shocking performance against Olympique Beja on the road. ES Zarzis pulled up a surprise stunt against Olympique Beja, coming from two goals down to secure the maximum points on a difficult ground. 

ES Zarzis have picked nineteen points from a combined twenty-four, scoring eleven and conceding four. 

ES Zarzis have won their last four home games and are the only side to have done that this campaign.

Etoile du Sahel (10th)

Last five games: DLDLW

The Red and White picked up their second win of the season as Ghofrane Naouli and Ghedamsi scored twice before CA Bizertin responded once in a (1-2) away victory. Etoile du Sahel were aggressive offensively and could have scored more than two goals. The win was their first in the league on the road since January 2024. Etoile du Sahel have picked up eight points from a combined twenty-four, scoring four and conceding six goals. 

Etoile du Sahel have won once, drawn twice, and lost once on the road this season. 

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous fourteen meetings, Etoile du Sahel have won nine while ES Zarzis have recorded three victories and two games ending in a deadlock. Zarzis have been firing from all cylinders this season and they head here sky high in confidence following their away win against Olympique Beja. 

They’ll face off against an Etoile du Sahel, who won their first away game since early this year. Considering how the guests have been inconsistent lately, I will back the hosts to at least secure a point here and score less than two goals for 1.60.

I also think the hosts will score before the break for 2.40.

ES Zarzis are my favorite pick here, and I can’t think of any reason why they would lose this game.

Good luck!
