CS Sfaxien vs Olympique Beja Prediction: The two teams are in good form

In the Tunisia Ligue Professionnelle 1, CS Sfaxien will play Olympique Beja at Stade Taïeb Mhiri. Let's preview this game and make predictions. 

CS Sfaxien were held to a 1-1 draw the previous weekend and will look to do better this time. In that encounter, CS Sfaxien went behind in the 24th minute, with Achref Jabri scoring for Zarzis. However, CS Sfaxien needed a last minute goal by Haythem Ayouni to see this team avoid a defeat. However, that draw was CS Sfaxien's second consecutive draw, the first against Club Africain in a goalless encounter. This season, CS Sfaxien have accumulated nine points from their first six games, scoring six goals and conceding four. 

Olympique Beja's last league game was against Club Africain, and they settled for a 1-1 draw. In that encounter, Olympique Beja had to come from behind to avoid a defeat, thanks to a second-half Skander Sghaier strike. In the meantime, Olympique Beja won their first five matches of the season, defeating Etoile Sahel, Gabes, Ben Guerdane, JS Omrane and EGS Gafsa. Sitting at the top of the standings, Olympique Beja have 16 points, scored eight goals, and conceded two in six matches. 

This is a tough encounter to predict, considering the two teams' performances and past meetings. However, CS Sfaxien is worth banking on at home, even though they will have a lot of defensive work to do. While Olympique Beja have been good this season, I expect them to struggle a bit here, a game that should end with few goals.
