Olympique Beja vs Slimane Prediction: Expect goals from both sides here

The Olympique Beja and Slimane match that is part of round 2 of the Tunisian Ligue Professionnelle 1 will take place at the Stade Boujemaa Lekmiti stadium. Both Olympique Beja and Slimane lost their opening games in the league to Stade Tunisie. Olympique Beja was blown out at home by Stade Tunisie, and Slimane also fell to Stade Tunisien.

Olympique Beja - home team hoping to get back to winning ways

The previous games that Olympique Béja played resulted in them winning one game against Etoile du Sahel, losing three games to Abu Salim, Etoile du Sahel, and Stade Tunisien, and drawing one game against Abu Salim. Olympique Béja were only able to score two goals in those matches, while they allowed 10 goals during that time span. During the current league season, Olympique Béja has scored 0.5 goals on average in every game they have played. For reasons of discipline, the away team was shown one red card and five yellow cards, but the home team was not shown any red cards. This season, Olympique Béja has an average possession of the ball of 42.00%, which indicates that they are somehow unable to hold control of the ball. The home team currently holds the third slot in Group A of the standings for the Tunisian Ligue Professionnelle 1 after earning three points from their first two matches.

Slimane - away team still struggling

In their previous five matches, Slimane has won three of them against Métlaoui, Hammam-Sousse, and CA Bizertin. On the other hand, they have lost two of those matches to EO Sidi Bouzid and Stade Tunisien. Throughout that stretch of games, the away team scored six goals while only allowing four throughout that time period. Away from home, Slimane was responsible for an average of one goal scored and two goals allowed per game. With only 48.00% of the ball in his possession on average so far this season, Slimane does not have a very good grasp on the ball.

Head-Head Statistics

Only six times in recent history have Olympique Béja and Slimane competed against one another, with Olympique Béja coming out on top three times and Slimane claiming victory twice.

Expert Betting Tips

After looking at how their prior matches have concluded, it appears that this one will be a very close affair. The team playing at home currently has a slight advantage, and I anticipate that they will continue to perform well there. A loss in this match won't be what Slimane is hoping for because they started their season off with a loss in the league, making it their second straight loss across all competitions. Therefore, taking a critical look at this match, the best option here is a draw, with both sides also expected to display a great attacking performance.
