Primeiro de Agosto vs Desportivo Huíla Prediction: Both teams need a statement to make

Estádio Joaquim Dinis will be the venue for round nine of the Angola Girabola League encounter between Primeiro de Agosto and Desportivo Huila. Both teams secured a win in their last league game. How will they approach this one?

Primeiro de Agosto

Primeiro de Agosto secured a road win over Carmona the previous weekend and will look to keep things running. In that game, Cesar Cangue Uvi's strike was all Primeiro de Agosto needed to take maximum points. In the meantime, Primeiro de Agosto have won three of their last matches, two others against CD Lunda Sul and Sagrada. In other matches, the home side lost to Luanda City while drawing Academica do Lobito.

Desportivo Huila

Desportivo Huila secured a 2-1 win over Academica the previous weekend and will hope for a similar outcome. In that game, George Lukussa and Jose Mendes both netted for this team, extending their run to three games unbeaten. In their last five matches, Desportivo Huila have two wins, two draws, and one defeat. This season, Desportivo Huila have accumulated eight points from eight games, leaving them seated 11th. 

Expert Betting Tips

Desportivo Huila have improved its performance in recent weeks, but it is still difficult to trust them. While Primeiro de Agosto have been inconsistent, their performances last weekend showed they are still strong title contenders. While history backs Primeiro de Agosto in this game, I am backing them to win at home. Also, with Desportivo Huila's poor offensive performance, I am backing this game to end with a few goals.
