Ruvu Shooting vs Simba SC Prediction: The visitors might get a halftime victory here

On Saturday, Simba Sporting Club will lock horns with Ruvu Shooting at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium. The home side have failed to win any of their last seven games, while Simba will be hopeful of a third win in three matches.

Simba SC (3rd)

Last five games: LWDWW

Street Boys Wekundu have not had it easy in their previous five games, with three wins, a stalemate and one loss. The results don't suit last season's runner-up, who are two points behind the league leaders. A few days ago, they fought back to secure a point against Singida BS. Shortly after, they secured a back-to-back win against Ihefu and Namungo.

Simba SC have scored a goal apiece in their last two games, both against average opponents. They head into this encounter as the favourite and must score as many goals as possible if they are to retain the top spot.

Ruvu Shooting (13th)

Last five games: LLLDL

The visitors have been playing below par this season, with seven points from a possible thirty-six. They have scored nine goals while conceding thirteen times. More recently, they surrendered to another defeat on the road as they were beaten (1-0) by Azam FC, though they fought hard in that fixture. It’s another game against a top side, and we expect them to show some improvement here.

Ruvu Shooting have won twice, drawn once and lost three times in the last six home matches.

Expert Betting Tips

The last twelve meetings have seen Simba with eleven wins, while Ruvu Shooting have won once and drawn a game in that process. Simba can’t afford to lose here; they have played more games than their arch-rival and still fall behind with two points. We expect them to win here for 1.56.

The home side will once again play defensively and try to hit the visitors on the counter, and they might get them a goal here for 2.10.

We expect the visitors to win and score more than a goal here for 2.03.

Good luck!
