Kozaf vs Bobo-Dioulasso Prediction: Road team expected to take maximum points

Round 27 action of the Burkina Faso Premier League will see Kozaf play Bobo-Dioulasso at Stadium Issoufou Joseph CONOMBO. Heading into this game, both teams have struggled to pick wins in recent matches. How will this encounter end?

Kozaf

Kozaf are coming off a league defeat at the hands of Salitas, a game that ended 2-1. In that encounter, Kozaf surprisingly took the lead in the 5th minute of the match, with Saabane Kabore netting for his side, a goal that was good enough to see this side win the first half of that game. However, poor second half performance did see Salitas level the scores just four minutes in with Christophe Sakande netting for his side. In the meantime, it was not until the 86th minute of the game that this team conceded the second of the day, with Faical Papou Konate scoring this time. Kozaf are winless in five consecutive matches. In the league this season, Kozaf have the less points picked, 18 so far from 26 league games. 

Bobo-Dioulasso

Bobo-Dioulasso will hope luck find them this time having not won any of their last four matches. In the meantime, Bobo-Dioulasso have seen each of those encounters end in draws. In that run, Bobo-Dioulasso played against Sonabel Ouagadougou, ASF Dioulasso, Rahimo and AS Douanes. In the meantime, a look at this team’s recent matches shows that they lost just one, coming against Majestic in as many as nine matches. However, Bobo-Dioulasso won just one of those encounters, a 2-1 win over Salitas while others ended in draws. In 26 already played matches in the Burkina Faso Premier League this season, Bobo-Dioulasso have accumulated 25 points, positioning them 14th in the standings, 2 ahead of relegation-placed Royal. 

Expert Betting Tips

I do not fully trust Bobo-Dioulasso here, looking at the fact that this team has prioritized draws to win. However, relegation is lurking around them, and a win is crucial, considering the number of matches left to be played this season. On the other hand, Kozaf did struggle against many sides this season, and looking at how poor they are, I believe the visiting Bobo-Dioulasso should be able to win here despite being on the road.
