Lys Sassandra vs Bouake Prediction: A contest of two poor sides

The Stade Robert Champroux is set to host the 12th-round Ivory Coast Ligue 1 clash between Lys Sassandra and Bouake. Leading up to this fixture, both teams have been unable to secure a victory in their previous five matches. Nevertheless, given a significant opportunity to break this streak in the upcoming game, how do you think this match will end?

Lys Sassandra - DDLLD

Lys Sassandra heads into their upcoming match following a hard-fought 1-1 draw against ASI d’Abengourou. In this particular game, Lys Sassandra displayed resilience by coming from behind, securing a crucial point with Sou D’avilla's equalizing goal in the 45+1 minute. In two of their recent matchups, Lys Sassandra played to goalless draws against Zoman and Academie de FAD, showcasing a defensive solidity but struggling to find the back of the net. It's noteworthy, however, that the host side experienced consecutive defeats in matches against AS Denguele and ASEC Mimosas, emphasizing the need for improvement in certain areas of their game.

Bouake - LLWWW

Bouake is currently enduring a winless streak in the ongoing season, finding themselves at the bottom of the standings. The team is eager to secure a victory, especially against another struggling side. In their most recent match, Bouake managed to secure a draw against Zoman, extending their streak to three consecutive draws. However, the team has only accumulated four points so far this season, showcasing a struggle to convert draws into wins.

On the offensive front, Bouake has scored just six goals, highlighting a challenge in finding the back of the net consistently. Conversely, defensively, the team has conceded 18 goals during the same period, indicating vulnerabilities in their backline. As Bouake seeks to break their winless streak, addressing both offensive and defensive aspects will be crucial for improving their overall performance in the ongoing season.

Expert Betting Tips
