Olympique Beja vs US Monastir Prediction: This evenly contested game could end in favour of the guests

On Sunday, Olympique Beja will face off against the unbeaten US Monastir at the Stade Mdjez El Bab Municipal Stadium. Both teams have been in decent form since the start of this campaign, and we expect a winner to emerge here tomorrow. 

Olympique Beja (1st)

Last five games: WWDDL

The hosts suffered their first defeat of the season against a solid ES Zarzis side. It was a bad day at the office for the hosts who underrated their opponent, and they were caught unaware. Despite winning at the break, Olympique Beja's defence went on strike as the guests scored twice to overturn the lead. 

Despite the loss, Nacif Beyaoui's men have picked up from where they stopped last season, winning five, losing once and settling for a stalemate in two games. 

Olympique Beja dropped to the third spot on the standings, two points behind the league leaders. 

Olympique Beja have won two of their last four games on their home turf, scoring five and conceding four. 

US Monastir (4th)

Last five matches: WWWDD

Mohamed Sahli's men maintained their unbeaten run but lost focus against Sfaxien on their ground. Since the league began, US Monastir failed to win a game where they scored first. They were below par against their guests in a (1-1) share of the spoils on their home turf. Before the game, the guests settled for a toothless stalemate against Club Africain on the road. US Monastir had scored six times across their last three games in the league. 

US Monastir are among the few teams yet to taste defeat since the season began, and we expect them to keep up with the pace here. 

US Monastir have drawn twice and won once over their previous three matches on the road. 

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous twelve meetings, US Monastir have won six while Olympique Beja have managed three wins and three games ending in a share of the spoils. The hosts seemed to have lost it after their recent defeat on their home turf. They ran out of ideas and were punished duly by their guests. On the other hand, US Monastir failed to pick up all the points on their ground in all competitions for the first time this season. They’ll be keen to revive themselves against an opponent who are also looking to rebound from their recent loss.

My bet is that US Monastir won’t lose here and I’ll back them to at least secure a point here. 

I also think this game won’t deprive us of goals, and a BTTS will surface here for 2.45.

This game might end in a halftime share of the spoils for 1.72.

Good luck!
