Shabana FC vs Tusker Football Club Prediction & Betting Tips - Kenyan Premier League

Prediction published on 09/02/2024, 05:30  by Devesh Jaganath in Kenyan Premier League Prediction

Gameweek 21 in the FKF Premier League will see Shabana FC taking on Tusker FC on Sunday afternoon. The hosts are currently second bottom in the league standings, while the visitors are sixth. After earning promotion back to the top flight, this season has not gone as Shabana would have hoped. They are currently on 18 points after 20 matches, two points from safety and five above bottom club Nzoia Sugar. The Glamour Boys played out a 0-0 draw against Nairobi City Stars last week, which followed a 1-0 loss to Ulinzi Stars a week earlier. With those results, Shabana have won only one of their last five league games and failed to score in four matches during that time. At home, the hosts have recorded two wins, three draws and five losses in ten matches this term and head into this match following back-to-back losses in their last two. However, they did beat this opponent 1-0 in the reverse fixture back in October. 

Meanwhile, after finishing second in the top flight last season, Tusker have struggled to find the same type of form this term. They have taken 31 points from the first 20 matches and trail league leaders Gor Mahia by 12 points. The Brewers also come into this match following back-to-back losses. Last week, they were beaten 1-0 by Bidco United, which followed another 1-0 defeat by Gor United. Those defeats snapped up a five-match winning run and ended a seven-match unbeaten streak. On the road, the visitors have taken a total of 17 points from a possible 30 this season and have lost only one of their last five. Despite losing the reverse fixture, Tusker are the favourties in this one.
