Moso Sugar Company vs Bumamuru Prediction: A solid start for the title contenders is expected

In round 16 of the Burundi Primus League, Moso Sugar Company will play Bumamuru at Stade Ingoma. The two teams enter the new year with hopes and will hope to secure a win. How will this game unfold? Below, I will provide match previews with betting opportunities. 

Moso Sugar Company

Moso Sugar Company's last league game was against Bumamuru, and they lost 2-0. In that encounter, this team conceded one goal in each half, which extended their defeat this season to 12. In fact, their best results this season were wins over Ngozi City and Amasipiri while drawing Dynamik. In other encounters, this team lost to Aigle Noir, Musongati, Vital’O, Le Messager Ngozi, Flambeau du Centre, Kayanza, and Royal Vision. This season, the home team has conceded 40 league goals, the second most by any side. With seven points from a possible 45, Moso Sugar Company sit 15th in the standings, being a point ahead of bottom-placed Amasipiri. 

Bumamuru

Bumamuru's last league game was against league-leading Aigle Noir, and this team could only take a point at full-time. In a game that ended 1-1, Bumamuru took an early lead through Enock Sabumukama, which saw them be in the lead at the end of the first half. However, an 80th Jean Nahimana strike for Aigle Noir denied this team maximum points. In the meantime, Bumamuru keep extending their unbeaten run of games to seven matches since their last defeat to third-placed Flambeau du Centre. In recent times, Bumamuru have defeated Vital’O, Kayanza, Amasipiri, and Deira. Away from home, this team has lost one, won three and drawn one. 

Expert Betting Tips

Bumamuru have consistently shown their quality, and I expect them to be at their best again. While Moso Sugar Company has struggled so much this season, I do not expect any surprising play from them at the beginning of this new year. This is a crucial game for both sides, but the visitors have the higher chances with their quality and depth on both ends of the field. I expect another poor play from Moso Sugar Company here, while Bumamuru hopes to go top of the table with a win.
