Samartex vs Asante Kotoko Prediction: The visitors have never lost three games in a row since 2012 but there is always a first time

On Saturday, Samartex will face off against a disturbed Asante Kotoko at the Nsenkyire Sports Arena. The Porcupine Warriors are struggling again, with four games without a breakthrough, as the visitors head here with a defeat on the road.

Last five games: WDLWL

The home side have been inconsistent since the season began, as they are yet to win on the road. More recently, they suffered their fourth defeat of the season when Bechem United scored one to secure the maximum points. Just like they always do on the road, Samartex suffered a blow as they’ve now gone eighteen games away from home with just a win. Samartex, who survived relegation by just four points, managed two wins in their seventeen games on the road.

Samartex have won their last four games at home, and that’s the only place where things always work out fine for them.

The Porcupine Warriors' struggle continued as they bowed to their third defeat of the season and their second consecutive loss. Dreams FC stunned them at home as Abdul Aziz Issah's goal in the 40th minute was enough to hand the guests three massive points.

The Porcupine Warriors, who had one of their most difficult campaigns last season, appeared to be struggling with team selection as the manager prefers young lads to his experienced players. A very youthful Asante Kotoko side displayed an unacceptable performance on their ground.

Even though coach Prosper Narteh seems to be the right fit for the most successful team in Ghana, I still think a change of management might put an end to their woes this season.

Expert Betting Tips

Asante Kotoko were one of the two sides who secured the maximum points against Samartex at home last season, as they won both legs with a correct score of (2-1). Samartex have no business in winning on the road and have made their own turf a refuge since promotion. Since 2012, Asante Kotoko have never lost three games in a row in the league, but all indications suggest they might break the record tomorrow. Asante Kotoko have been extremely uninspiring in recent weeks, and we think the hosts won’t lose here; bet on home win or draw and over 1.5 goals for 2.10.

This game is expected to produce a BTTS for 2.16.

Except the hosts are reduced to ten men, they should be able to win here for 2.27.

Good luck!
