Extra Betting Tips
Recent league games have not been good for Simba, and their last match also saw them lose to bitter rivals. On the other hand, Dodoma Jiji have not been great either, even though they have avoided defeats in consecutive games. Simba should, however, show character here and respond to their poor form and criticism, as they have the quality needed to win here. In past meetings of this fixture, Dodoma Jiji have not picked a point, and while they do not look improved yet, I am backing the road team to win 0-2 here.
