Azam vs Mashujaa tips and predictions

Mashujaa can't hurt Azam?

Azam are currently in second place as they get ready for 15th place Mashujaa.

It's hard to make a case for anything apart from a home win but their short price isn't very appealing. However, Mashujaa are not likely to pose a threat to this side.

The advantages are certainly with Azam. Their recent performances support that. The hosts have secured 17 home wins from their last 20 games. With less success than expected the travelling side has been flattering to deceive at times. They've lost 11 of their last 19 matches. The stars are aligned for one more defeat here.

At home Azam have been producing some brilliant stuff. Their recent 15 home matches have resulted in them averaging an impressive 3.1 goals per game and the rest of the squad has also been diligent. At the back they've conceded no more than once in all of their last 16 games.

In front of goal, the visitors have been underwhelming. They've scored one or less goals in 13 of their last 14 matches. All the data on the planet could be meaningless with hindsight if their forward players return to top form. They could be famous last words though.

The sportsbooks think that only one of these sides will present a threat on goal in a match that's played on Azam's terms. It's not a strong view but the odds-against for the Yes BTTS bet could be a fun small stakes side bet. And in the total goals line, it's Under 3.5 Goals in this game given these prices.
