US Ben Guerdane vs EGS Gafsa Prediction: The home might just pull a surprise stunt here

US Ben Guerdane will hope to turn their fortunes around when they face off against EGS Gafsa at the Stade de Ben Guerdane on Saturday. The home side have managed just a win in seven games and are on the verge of returning to division two, unlike the visitors, who have at least won two of their last seven fixtures. 

Last five games: LDLLL

The Cavaliers have started this round poorly, with a win over their previous seven games. US Ben Guerdane head here following the defeat on the road against ten men AS Marsa. A very terrible day for a side like Ben Guerdane as they failed to take advantage of their opponent, who we reduced to ten men in the 68th minute. US Ben Guerdane have had a terrible record on their ground, with a win in three matches. 

They have also lost three consecutive games in the division and are now in the danger zone. 

Last five games: LWLWD

The visitors head here with a decent performance against Olympique Beja on the road, settling for a share of the spoils. They have kept it clean on their ground this season and have won twice and drawn once. Their recent result is an impressive one as they are the second team to stop the hosts from scoring on their ground in this round. 

The newly promoted team have failed to make their mark in the premier league but are presented with another opportunity to remain in the division if they finish in the top six. EGS Gafsa have lost three and drawn once on the road in this round. 

Over their previous five meetings, US Ben Guerdane have won once and drawn four against EGS Gafsa. The hosts have been below par in this round and are on the verge of returning to division two if they fail to improve. They were knocked out of the Tunisian FA Cup against Club Africains, although they scored first and settled for a draw just for them to lose (4-5) on penalties at home. At the same time, EGS Gafsa head here with an excellent performance on the road against Olympique Beja, settling for a share of the spoils. They have not really been at their best when they play away from home, and we think the hosts might just pull a strange one on them this time. I think the hosts will not lose here, so we are trusting them to win for 1.69.

We also expect both teams to settle for a halftime draw for 1.87.

This game will produce less than a goal for 2.25.

Good luck!
