Metlaoui vs Etoile du Sahel Prediction: A draw will satisfy both teams

Métlaoui Municipal Stadium will be the venue for week six of the Tunisia Ligue Professionnelle 1 encounter between Metlaoui and Etoile du Sahel. With the inability of the two sides to secure a win the previous time out, how will they approach this game?

Metlaoui

Metlaoui are coming off an encounter against CA Bizertin, and this team settled for a 1-1 draw. In that game, Metlaoui needed to come from behind to avoid a defeat, thanks to Ahmed Bouassida's strike before the break. However, that draw was Metlaoui's second in a row, having held Esperance Tunis to a similar scoreline. In the meantime, since their week one win over Slimane, Metlaoui have failed to win four consecutive matches, losing two and drawing two. This season, Metlaoui have five points, scored four goals, and conceded four. 

Etoile du Sahel

Etoile du Sahel suffered a defeat the previous time out against Stade Tunisien, an encounter that ended 0-1. In that game, in the first half of the 16th minute, Yusuf Toure's strike was enough to seal maximum points for his side. In the meantime, that defeat was Etoile du Sahel's second this season, their first against Monastir. This season, Etoile du Sahel have accumulated four points from their first five matches, scoring two goals and conceding three. 

Expert Betting Tips

The two teams are struggling and inconsistent, and it is tough to back either side with confidence. While at home, Metlaoui have only one win. However, the visiting Sahel have the better result in recent times in this fixture. This should be competitive, looking at how weak the two sides' defenses have been. Take a bet on goals, while a draw satisfies the two sides.
