Tabora United vs Azam FC Prediction: We are banking on the visitors to at least get a point here

Tabora United have a tough hurdle to overcome when they face off against Azam FC at the Ali Hassan Mwinyi Stadium on Friday. The hosts picked up their sixth win of the campaign on the road against KMC and will be determined to maintain the same momentum when they host the league leaders tomorrow. 

Tabora United (5th)

Last five games: WWWDW

The Bees have gone five games without a defeat for the first time since promotion. It is a run based on their resilience, fast attacking, and great defensive performances. More recently, Tabora United stunned KMC on their home turf, scoring two unanswered goals. This was after their comeback stalemate against Singida Black Star on their home turf. 

Tabora United have managed six wins over their previous thirteen meetings in the league, scoring sixteen and conceding seventeen. 

The Bees have won three, lost once, and drawn twice over their previous six home games.

Azam FC (1st)

Last five matches: WWWWW

The guests claimed the top spot following their seventh consecutive league victory. Not participating in the continental tournament might be a blessing in disguise for Azam FC against the other title contenders, Young Africans and Simba SC. Azam FC scored three times and conceded once to secure all the points against Dodoma Jiji on the road. Despite their poor start to the season, Azam FC are back on their feet, winning seven successive games. Rachid Taoussi's men are two points clear at the top, even though they’ve played two games more than Young Africans and Simba SC. 

They have also won nine, drawn three, and lost once since the start of this season. Azam FC have also won five and drawn twice over their last seven games on the road.

Expert Betting Tips

Both teams have won a game apiece over their previous two meetings. Tabora United have been the surprise of the season, considering their recent league run. They have won four and drawn once over their last five league matches. However, Tabora United's run at home has not been convincing. All Tabora United’s wins on their ground have been from a penalty kick with a correct score of (1-0). On the opposing end, Azam FC have been the team of the tournament and are on the longest winning run since the league began. 

Tabora United have been at the top of their game lately; however, they’re not on the same level as the guests, who are aiming to extend their lead on the log. Azam FC are built for games of this caliber, and to be on the safe side, double chance the guests or settle for an away win in either half.

Both teams have been unable to prioritise defence in recent games and I think a BTTS will surface here for 2.06.

This game will end in favour of Azam FC for 2.03.

Good luck!
