Etoile Filante vs ASFA Yennega Prediction: Take the hosts to win this game

Stadium Issoufou Joseph CONOMBO will be the venue for this round 21 Burkina Faso Premier League game between Etoile Filante and ASFA Yennega. Heading into this game, the two teams have accumulated the same points this season(25), coming from 20 league games. Which side will take advantage of this encounter?

Etoile Filante

Etoile Filante are off their fourth match without a win, and coming into this game, they will look to turn things around. Etoile Filante lost to Sonabel Ouagadougou in that stretch in a 1-0 encounter. However, other games ended in draws against ASEC Koudougou, Salitas, and Bobo-Dioulasso. In their last league win, Etoile Filante defeated Kozaf on the road, a game that ended 2-3, thanks to a late 90+3 minute strike by Gilbert Bilgo. In the stretch of their last five games, Etoile Filante scored five goals while conceding five in the same span.

ASFA Yennega

ASFA Yennega picked up a road win against Vitesse last time in the league. In a game that ended 0-2, goals from Tawfiq Ouattara and Jean Noufe were what ASFA Yennega needed to take all three points. However, a look at ASFA Yennega's last five matches overall have now seen them win two, one other coming against Sonabe Ouagadougou. At the same time, they drew Bobo-Dioulasso in a goalless game. In the meantime, ASFA Yennega lost to ASEC Koudougou and Salitas in other encounters, totaling four goals scored in the last five games while conceding three in the same number of games.

Extra Betting Tips

Matches between these sides have always been close and tight, and this one is not expected to be different. However, the home turf advantage will be huge in deciding who wins this game. ASFA Yennega also won the reverse fixture of this at home, and I expect Etoile Filante to take maximum points in a low-scoring encounter.
