Tanzania Prisons vs Mashujaa Prediction: The visiting team will not drop points.

In round 17 of the Tanzania Ligi Kuu Bara, Tanzania Prisons will face Mashujaa at Sokoine Stadium. The two teams last meeting ended in a goalless draw. How will this fixture unfold? Below, I provide match previews and make predictions. 

Tanzania Prisons

Tanzania Prisons last league game was against Pamba and they secured a win. In a game that ended 1-0, Tariq Simba's strike in the 31st minute was all this team needed to take maximum points. However, that win was Tanzania Prisons’ lone victory in recent matches, having gone winless in the prior five prior matches. In that run, Tanzania Prisons lost to JKT Tanzania, Coastal Union, Singida Black Stars, and Young Africans while drawing Kagera Sugar. This season, Tanzania Prisons have 14 points from their first 16 matches, which puts them in 7th place.

Mashujaa

Mashujaa are coming off a defeat at the hands of Dodoma Jiji and will hope to turn things around. In a game that ended 3-1, a last-minute strike from Crispin Ngushi was all this team could take after going three goals behind. However, this team heads into this game with a winless run of five matches, losing two and drawing three. Away from home, Mashujaa have failed to win any of their last seven matches. This season, Mashujaa have scored seven goals in 16 matches, while conceding 17. In those matches, Mashujaa accumulated 14 points, which see them sit 13th in the standings.

Expert Betting Tips

Tanzania Prisons have not been a threat to top teams this season and I do not see them having an easy task here. On the other hand, Mashujaa are doing a lot better, but on the road, they need to do better. I will bet on a win for Mashujaa in what should be a hard-fought one. Also, while the two teams have a weak attacking line, a bet on a few goals is another option. 

Our first option is a draw no bet for Mashujaa with odds at 1.90 on Bet365

Our second option is team 2 to win at least one half with odds at 2.08 on 1Xbet

Our last option is the first half under 0.5 goals with odds at 2.10 on Betway
