Etoile du Sahel vs Olympique Béja Prediction: The Red and White will avenge the previous season's opening-day defeat against the visitors

Etoile du Sahel will square off against Olympique Béja at the Stade Olympique de Sousse Stadium on Saturday. The Red and White will look to return to glory after a poor season, and they could be at an advantage after failing to play in the continental tournament. 

Etoile du Sahel

The Red and White had one of their worst seasons ever, finishing fifth in the championship round. They failed to win any of their ten games in the round, sharing the spoils seven times.

The Red and White are among the most successful teams in the Tunisian League but have struggled in recent seasons. 

Etoile du Sahel head here with a new coach, Hammadi Daou, who was the former Stade Tunisien manager. They have also signed some players in the summer and are expected to finish strong this season.

Olympique Beja

The guests ended their campaign in the relegation round, winning the group after securing thirty points from fourteen matches. Olympique Beja were eliminated in the semifinals of the Tunisian Cup, suffering a defeat against Stade Tunisien on their ground. 

Olympique Beja have lost once over their last five games, and they’ll be poised to prove themselves in this campaign.
