Dodoma Jiji vs Young Africans Prediction: Another high-scoring game for the guests

Dodoma Jiji have a stern test when they lock horns against an in-form Young Africans team at the Jamhuri Stadium on Wednesday. After back-to-back defeats, Dodoma Jiji will have to tighten up their defence to avoid casualties as their opponent vow to make goals rain in this encounter. 

Dodoma Jiji (11th)

Last five games: DLWLL

The hosts march here with another defeat as they were beaten by Singida Big Stars on the road. After conceding two goals at the break, Dodoma Jiji responded once in the second half, but it wasn’t enough to rescue them a point against a well-drilled opponent. This was after their (1-3) home trashing against Azam FC. 

Dodoma Jiji's defense have been on strike lately, failing to keep a clean sheet in five consecutive league games. 

The home side are yet to replicate last season's form, but they are gradually working their way to the top. The result means Dodoma Jiji have now won once over their last five league matches. Dodoma Jiji sit in the eleventh spot on the log, picking up sixteen points from a possible forty-two. 

Dodoma Jiji have won four and lost twice at home this season. 

Young Africans (2nd)

Last five games: LLWWW

Everything is back to normal for Yanga Boys, who had a rough patch in recent games. They head here with three consecutive league wins as they continue to build momentum. Young Africans scored five unanswered goals against Tanzania Prisons to move to the second spot on the log. This was after their (3-2) victory over Mashujaa FC on their home turf. 

It hasn’t been rosy for Yanga Boys in front of goal until their last two games, and they have not been bad defensively, letting in six goals this season. 

They have picked up thirty-three points from a combined thirty-nine, scoring twenty-three and conceding six. 

Young Africans have won all their away league games this season.

Expert Betting Tips

Dodoma Jiji ground used to be a very difficult place for a visiting team, but seeing them concede three goals against Azam FC changed the whole situation. They will face an even more sophisticated Young Africans attack, and I’m not sure they’ll survive the first forty-five minutes. 

I expect Young Africans to continue their free-flowing football, and I’m sure Dodoma Jiji won’t fold their hands. So, expect goals in this encounter, and I think the guests will likely get a goal before the break for 1.64.

I expect to see more than two goals here for 2.15.

The guests will win and score more than once since they have won three consecutive visits against their opponent.

Good luck!
