Expert Betting Tips

The home team's talent level is simply not high enough to compete successfully against a team like this that is in the race for top place. Also, despite the fact that the away team, Esperance Tunis, had just played their previous match to a tie, I anticipate a far stronger performance from them here, which will result in a victory for the away team. In addition, the home team is likely to allow too many goals to be scored since they are too vulnerable on both ends of this encounter. On the other hand, Esperance Tunis have been in great form defensively, so it is expected that only the away team will score goals.
