Nairobi City vs Wazito Prediction: A low goal scoring encounter expected

This Kenyan Premier League match between Nairobi City and Wazito will take place at Kasarani Annex Stadium. Both teams will enter this contest with the expectation of getting off to a successful start to the season. Despite the fact that this competition is wide open, whose side do you believe will score their first win, or do you think it will end in a draw between the two?

After suffering a loss against Gor Mahia by a score of 1-4 in their previous match in the Kenyan Premier League, Nairobi City will be hoping for a better outcome here. Recent games played against Nairobi City have consistently featured a high volume of goalmouth activity, which has contributed to the matches' reputation as entertaining spectacles. Over the course of their previous six meetings, a total of 21 goals have been scored by both teams combined (which works out to an average of 3.5 goals per game), with the Nairobi City Stars being responsible for nine of these tallies.

Wazito and their supporters will be hoping for a different outcome this time around after suffering a defeat in their most recent Kenyan Premier League match against Mathare United. The Wazito defenders have put on a string of solid performances, which has led to a reduction in the number of goals their team has conceded over the course of their most recent six competitions, which brings the total to four. During the same time frame, their own forwards have scored five goals for themselves.

When we examine their history of head-to-head competition dating back to 2021, we find that Nairobi City has won four of these games, while Wazito 2 has won two of these contests. During six head-to-head matchups, the two clubs combined to score 13 goals, with Nairobi City scoring 8 and Wazito scoring 5.

It is anticipated that this match will be very close due to the high level of play displayed by both teams as well as the high caliber of their respective squads. On the other hand, there is no doubt that both teams will have a good showing in front of the net, and I do not doubt that either one of them will score at least once. In the meantime, Nairobi City has the benefit of playing at home here, and they have also experienced a lot of victories over Wazito. I do not anticipate that they will have it easy this time, but they should still do well to pull off a 2-1 victory.
