Naivas FC vs Mathare United tips and predictions

Interesting Super League fixture should be a tight affair

There's not much between Naivas FC and Mathare United in the Super League. The hosts are in third place with 59 points, compared to their opponents who are in second place on 61 points.

Any result could happen here. The draw looks fair. The suspicion is that this will be tight. A goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to get carried away with.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. Looking secure at home Naivas FC have conceded at an average of just 0.8 goals per game over their last 17 matches, while Mathare United have only conceded 0.6 goals per game on average in their last 5 away matches.

It would be misleading to argue that the favourites are a lock here. Don't be surprised if the two sides cancel each other out over an attritional ninety minutes. It isn't huge value but the No BTTS bet seems fair enough.

Naivas FC have drawn 4 of their last 7 matches, most recently when they drew 1-1 with Vihiga last Saturday. Mathare United have drawn 4 of their last 9 away matches. They shared the spoils with Dimba Patriots last Saturday and while the prediction is for any stalemate, a scoreline of 0-0 cannot be written off here. To wrap this up there is nothing to like about the home or away win odds, so the draw is food for thought. Stalemate is the pick after what looks set to be a tightly contested match-up.
