Bendel Insurance vs Shooting Stars Prediction: The Benin Arsenal will start strong at home

Bendel Insurance will host Shooting Stars at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium on Saturday. The home side will play their first game in the league, while the visitors head here with a win in their most recent match in the division.

Bendel Insurance

Bendel Insurance almost went a whole season without a defeat until their last two matches. Bendel Insurance had a fantastic season and won the FA Cup to secure the ticket to the CAF Confederation Cup tournament.

RSB Berkane knocked them out in the CAF Confederation Cup and will be focused on starting well in the league this season.

Bendel Insurance's road to success has been excellent; they secured promotion last season and ended in fifth place.

Shooting Stars

The Oluyole Warriors picked up their first win of the season, defeating Plateau United (2-1). Ayobami Junior drew the first blood at halftime, and Anaya Ogbonna extended the lead before a consolation goal from the visitors.

Shooting Stars have won once in their previous thirteen games on the road.

Expert Betting Tips

Their last two meetings ended in a share of the spoils, with three goals apiece. Bendel Insurance will be without their top scorer last season, Imade Osarenkhe, who signed for Qatari side United FC. It’s a massive blow for Benin Arsenal, who were knocked out of the CAF Confederation Cup without him. On the other hand, Shooting Stars will be hopeful of improving on their away record this season. Bendel Insurance are a great side and has been unbeaten at home since last season; we expect them to put a smile on the faces of their supporters, bet on total over 1.5 goals for 1.65.

We expect both sides to get a goal apiece here for 3.10.

Bendel Insurance might even secure a halftime victory here for 2.27.

Good luck!
