Two sides in need of a positive result in the FKF Premier League will face off in midweek when FC Talanta take on Mara Sugar at Ruaraka Stadium. The hosts are second-bottom in the league standings while the visitors are in seventh place. Let’s get into the match prediction.
It has been a tough start to the season for Talanta, who are preparing to enter their 12th match of the campaign as the first side below the dotted line, with just 10 points in 11 games.
Talanta’s last match ended in a 2-1 away defeat to Shabana, which extended their winless run to three matches, while they have still only won two games so far this term.
However, despite their struggles, the hosts have only conceded one defeat in five home games this season, while drawing three and winning one of the other four.
Meanwhile, Mara Sugar made a very impressive start to the season, losing only one of their first seven games (W4 D2 L1), but they have been steadily slipping in the table lately.
Since beating Bidco United at the start of last month, Mara Sugar have gone five matches without a victory, including three defeats in a row leading up to this fixture.
On the road, the visitors have played seven matches this season and earned five points in that period, though they are winless in their last three (W0 D1 L2).

Our FC Talanta vs Mara Sugar FC Prediction
Talanta are now in the bottom two, but they will feel that this is a match they should be taking something from, given their home form and their opponent’s dip in performance of late.
However, Mara Sugar, while some way from their best, are a decent defence that has conceded fewer than a goal per 90, and will likely look to prioritise the clean sheet here in an attempt to end their current losing streak. Therefore, our FC Talanta vs Mara Sugar prediction is under 2.5 goals.
