Singida Fountain Gate vs Dodoma Jiji Prediction: We expect few goals in this game

Singida Fountain Gate and Dodoma Jiji will meet at the CCM Kirumba Stadium in the Tanzania Ligi Kuu Bara. The last meeting between these sides ended in a road win for the Singida Fountain Gate. Can the Dodoma Jiji also replicate that result on the road?

Singida Fountain Gate are coming off a goalless draw with Mashujaa in a league encounter. In the meantime, Singida Fountain Gate remain without a win in their last four games, as their last win is dated the middle of March. In that span of poor run, Singida Fountain Gate lost to Tabora United and Young Africans, games that ended 0-3 with identical scores, while they played 1-1 with Ihefu. In Singida Fountain Gate's recent home games, this side has just one win, losing three and drawing one. This season in the Tanzania Ligi Kuu Bara standings, Singida Fountain Gate are seated 11th with 26 points, coming from 24 league games.

Dodoma Jiji's last game was against the Kinondoni MC, and this side secured a 1-0 win. In that game, Paul Peter Kasunda’s 9th-minute strike was the difference, giving Dodoma Jiji all the maximum points. In the meantime, the prior games to that win saw Dodoma Jiji go on a four-game winless run, losing to Young Africans and Geita Gold, while they drew JKT Tanzania and Kagera United in that run. Dodoma Jiji scored just one goal in those matches while conceding four. In the Ligi Kuu Bara this season, Dodoma Jiji have accumulated 28 points from 23 games, positioning them 8th in the standings.

These two sides are just too poor to be backed, and there are high questions about the level of performance they will drop here. I do not trust either side since they have been poor both in attack and defence. Regardless, I think this will be an open encounter, and we can see a lot of defensive play. Expect a low-scoring game, with both sides settling for a draw.
