Esperance ST vs Etoile du Sahel Prediction: The guests always feel intimidated playing against Al Taraji

On Sunday, Esperance ST will face off against arch-rival Etoile du Sahel at the Stade Olympique Hammadi Agrebi Stadium⭕.

The hosts have📖 dominated this fixture in recent years, and we can’t think of anything that could stop them here. 

Esperance ST (1st)

Last five games: WWDDL

For the second consecutive game in the league, Esperance failed to win a game. Al Taraji have been below par lately after their decent performances at the beginning of the round. They head here with a (2-0) defeat against Stade Tunisien away from home. Over their previous twenty meetings, Stade Tunisien have never beaten Esperance ST with two cꦦlean goals. It became worse when they were knocked out of the Tunisian FA Cup by a relegation-threatened Division Two side. It’s a very wrong timing for the hosts, who have a final game to play against Al Ahly next week. 

The Gold and ไBlood have won twice and drawn one of their last three games at home. 

Etoile du Sahel (5th)

Last five games: LDDDD

The guests are on the verge of missing out on continental football after six games without a breakthrough. Etoile du Sahel settled for another share of the spoils on their ground as they dropped to fifth place on the log. After three consecutive stalemates, Etoile parted ways with🍌 coach Ahmed Alajlani. Under his leadership, the host managed just a win in eight games, with the only v🅘ictory against ES Bouchamma in the Tunisian FA Cup. 

Etoile du Sahel wrapped up the Tunisian League One at the top of the log, winning seven, sharing the spoils four times, and losing once. However, Etoile du Sahel have not replicated such form in the championship round as they have played five without a win. The Red and White have drawn all their last 🏅three games on the road in this round.
