Royal AM vs Mbabane Highlanders FC Prediction: The home team won't lose here

The CAF confederation qualifications continue as Royal AM hosts Mbabane Highlanders at the Moses Mabhida Stadium on Friday. Both teams settled for a stalemate in the first leg; however, there must be a winner in this fixture.

Despite their achievements last season, where they finished third in the division, the home side hasn't replicated such performance this season. They have lost three games already this season, scoring ten and conceding nine.

Thwihli Thwahla's side were the most improved team last season. They finished third and secured the ticket to their first-ever CAF tournament.

They have won two, drawn once and lost twice at home this season.

The Swaziland-based team wrapped up the season in second place, just two points behind league leaders Royal Leopards. They picked up sixty-seven from thirty games while scoring sixty-four and conceding twenty-five.

Their best taste of the tournament was in 2013, bowing out in the preliminary round.

They are highly inexperienced, and it's going to be tough getting the required result here.

Both teams met last week and had to settle for a boring (0-0) draw. The home side have a better chance of progressing simply because they play at home in a highly competitive league. Bet on the home win and over 1.5 goals for 1.80.

The home side won't hold back at halftime for 1.95.

We expect more than two goals here for 2.10.

Good luck!
