Esperance Tunis vs AS Douanes Prediction: Esperance Tunis to finish work at home

In the second clash of the CAF Champions League qualifying, Esperance Tunis will face off against AS Douanes at the Stade Olympique Hammadi Agrebi. Following their victory on the road in the first leg, Esperance Tunis have the advantage heading into this game. Nevertheless, do you believe AS Douanes will be able to surprise the host here?

In the first leg of their battle, Esperance Tunis defeated AS Douanes by a score of 0-1, which gives them the advantage in this matchup. Therefore, they will be hoping for a win in their second-leg matchup. In the meantime, the hosts have returned to their position as substantial favorites here, and it is anticipated that they will perform at their absolute best. The only goal scored in the first leg of this match was a penalty kick that was taken and scored by Mohamed Tougai in the 28th minute. The most recent meeting between these two teams was played on the road by Esperance Tunis, who prevailed 1-0 over CS Sfaxien.

The most recent match that AS Douanes played resulted in a scoreless draw against Vitesse. On the other side, just before that match, AS Douanes was knocked out of the CAF Champions League by Esperance Tunis in a match that took place at home. While this was going on, AS Douanes prevailed over ASGNN, Kozaf, and Royal in three of their most recent five matches overall to earn victories. Even though the away team is now the underdog in this match, we can only want to see them perform at their absolute best here in order to increase their chances of advancing to the next round of this competition.

As was the case in the first leg of this competition, I anticipate a very close encounter in which both teams will put up a strong defensive front. In the meantime, the away team is not especially bad, and as a result, they should be able to pick up a draw in this encounter. Esperance Tunis is coming into this match as a heavy favorite and will have the benefit of playing on their home field; hence, it is anticipated that they will emerge victorious and go to the subsequent round.
