Azam FC vs Singida Black Stars Prediction: The guests stand no chance against their opponent here

This stage is set for the top four battle in the Ligi Kuu Bara as Azam face off against an adamant Singida Black Stars side at the Azam Complex on Thursday. Both teams have been tipped to finish in third and fourth place, respectively, and we are confident a winner will emerge in this highly competitive game.

Azam FC (2nd)

Last five matches: WWWWW

Following their five consecutive wins in the league, Azam FC moved to second place on the log. Azam FC have kept it simple lately, winning their last two games with a goal apiece. More recently, they defeated Kagera Sugar (1-0) on their home turf.

This was after their emphatic victory over Young Africans on the road. Azam became just the only team to defeat the league champions twice this year. The result means they have now won five consecutive games in the league this season. 

Coach Rachid Taoussi's men seem back on their feet after their setback against Simba lately. 

Rachid Taoussi's comrades have won six, drawn three, and lost once since the start of this season. They have also won three, lost once, and drawn a game over their previous five games at home. 

Singida Black Stars (4th)

Last five games: WWLDD

Moses Basena's men, who spent most of their time at the top of the league this season, are now fourth on the standings. They have now gone three games without a breakthrough, settling for a stalemate against Tabora United on the road. Despite scoring twice at the break and conceding once, Singida Black Stars failed to impress as their opponent fired up after the break to split points. 

Singida BS have managed just four shots at goal over their last three games, and it’s a huge concern for a side who had scored more than fifteen.

Singida Black Stars have shown grit and determination in this campaign despite their recent woes, and we believe they’ll at least finish in the top three. They presently sit in fourth spot on the log, picking up twenty-four points from a combined thirty-three. 

Singida Black Stars have won four and drawn once over their previous five meetings on the road. 

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous six meetings, Singida Black Stars have won once, while Azam have recorded five wins. The hosts have been very direct since their defeat against Simba SC. They’re still not playing at the very level we require of them, but they’re a very dangerous side. Not taking anything away from the guests who have been at the top of their game this campaign, however, they stand no chance against the hosts.

I’m going to back Azam to win comfortably because this is the sort of game that differentiates them from being a top-four side or a title contender. It’s risky to totally bank on a straight win here, but I can guarantee they won’t lose this game. 

I also think the hosts will keep a clean sheet here because they have been pretty good defensively.

This game will produce less than a goal for 2.27.

Good luck!
