Sonabel Ouagadougou vs ASF Dioulasso Prediction: A close contest ahead

The Burkina Faso Premier League match between Sonabel Ouagadougou and ASF Dioulasso will begin at the Stadium Issoufou Joseph CONOMBO. The match is part of round 21 of the league. Last weekend, the visiting team from Bobo-Dioulasso played the home team to a draw, while the home club's opponent, ASF Dioulasso, won their match against the team in last place, AS Police.

After being able to salvage only a draw from their match against Bobo-Dioulasso the previous weekend, Sonabel Ouagadougou will be hoping for a better result in this game. Sonabel Ouagadougou would consider the outcome of that game a success even if they only earned one point. This is due to their ability to avoid a third consecutive defeat after defeats to Vitesse and Rahimo a few weeks earlier. This season in the Burkina Faso Premier League, Sonabel Ouagadougou has accumulated 22 points after playing in 20 matches. They have scored a total of 11 goals, but have already allowed seventeen to be scored against them.

ASF Dioulasso will try to build on their victory over AS Police from the previous weekend, which was their second consecutive league win in a row. However, this encounter will present a greater challenge for them, especially given that the AS Police are now in a position where they are simply not good enough to compete against any other team in the league. In spite of this, those victories are anticipated to serve as a source of motivation for them and a significant boost in their ability to perform well in this clash. The away team currently sits in fifth place in the league with 25 points after playing 20 matches, scoring 12 goals while allowing 16 to be scored against them.

When comparing the rosters, statistics, and general performances of the two clubs up to this point in the season, there is not much that separates them from one another. There is still a very strong potential that each of the two sides will be able to score a goal in this game, which I anticipate will end in a draw based on how attentively I've been watching it. Despite this, the away team appears to be quite formidable, particularly when considering their win-to-loss record in the league. Because of this, I expect ASF Dioulasso to score the first goal of this match.
