Bidco United vs Police FC Prediction: A tight one expected

The Kenyan Premier League contest between Bidco United and Police FC will take place at Del Monte Grounds. As both teams enter this matchup, they are tied with 24 points each, derived from 17 matches played. However, do you know which team will emerge victorious in this encounter?

Bidco United aims to bounce back from their recent 3-0 Premier League defeat against Sofapaka in their last match. However, a review of the host's recent performances reveals only two victories, against AFC Leopards and Shabana, a draw with Kariobangi Sharks, and a single defeat to Tusker. Bidco United has managed to find the back of the net five times in their last six outings. On the flip side, they have conceded a total of 8 goals in those same fixtures.

Police FC enters this upcoming match on a positive note, securing a 3-0 Premier League victory against Kakamega Homeboyz in their previous game. Musa Mohammed provided an early lead for Police FC in the 2nd minute, while second-half goals from Kenneth Muguna and Tito Okello secured all three points. Looking at their recent form, the visitors have won two, lost two, and drawn one in their last five matches. Police FC has been in a celebratory mood, scoring a total of 10 goals in their latest six outings. On the defensive end, they have conceded 5 goals in the same set of matches.

The two teams have performed at a similar level this season, accumulating the same number of points from an equal number of games. However, a closer look at their previous meetings indicates that Police FC has consistently outperformed the other team in all their encounters since 2021. Nevertheless, in this particular match, especially with Police FC playing away and not showcasing any exceptional form, I anticipate the hosts to have a good opportunity to change the historical trend.

Despite this, my prediction leans towards a draw, with both teams expected to score.
