CS Sfaxien vs Monastir Prediction: Take a chance on the hosts

Stade Taïeb Mhiri will host the championship group match between CS Sfaxien and Monastir in round 3 of the Tunisia Ligue Professionnelle 1. Both teams have accumulated three points from two games and will aim for a positive outcome in this encounter. Here's a preview of the match along with some betting opportunities.

CS Sfaxien

In their previous matches, CS Sfaxien secured just one win, a 2-0 victory at home against Métlaoui. However, they suffered a defeat to Esperance Tunis, while matches against Monastir, Club Africain, and Stade Tunisien ended in goalless draws. Throughout these games, CS Sfaxien scored two goals and conceded only one. They have maintained an average of 1 goal per match in the current league season and possess a ball possession average of 52.45%.

Monastir

Monastir enters this match with one win in their last five games, also against Métlaoui on the road. They suffered defeats against Esperance Tunis and Club Africain, with two fixtures ending in draws against CS Sfaxien and Etoile du Sahel. During this period, Monastir scored four goals and conceded three. In away games, they averaged 1.83 goals scored and 0.75 goals conceded per match, with a possession average of 53.00%.

Expert Betting Tips

Anticipated as another closely contested match, both teams will be eager to secure a win after recent winless runs. However, the hosts hold a slight advantage at home, and I expect them to capitalize on this. Nevertheless, considering the recent lack of productivity from both sides, I anticipate a low-scoring affair.
