Difaa El Jadidi vs Chabab Benguerir tips and predictions

Jury's still out in Coupe du Trone match

Difaa El Jadidi are a level above Chabab Benguerir but this is not as straightforward as it might look at face value.

Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to go mad about.

These sides have impressed at the back. Solid on their own soil Difaa El Jadidi have conceded at an average of just 0.7 goals per game over their last 3 matches and Chabab Benguerir have conceded only 1 goal in their last 3 matches on the road.

Maybe things fail to live up to the hype due to the favouritism for Difaa El Jadidi. In the Both Teams To Score market, the No option is the pick.

Difaa El Jadidi have drawn 9 of their last 18 matches on their own soil. Further, Chabab Benguerir have drawn 8 of their last 15 matches. They shared the spoils with Dcheira last week. To wrap this up there is nothing to like about the home or away win odds, so the draw warrants consideration. Deadlock is the pick after what looks set to be a close encounter.

Of course, Chabab Benguerir are a second tier side so it remains to be seen how they adapt to the challenge presented by their superior rivals on their own turf.
