Hawassa vs Sidama Bunna Prediction: A close matchup expected

In the round of 22 of the Ethiopia Premier League, Hawassa will play host to Sidama Bunna at Hawassa Stadium.

Hawassa are the favorites in this matchup, and the home club will try to take advantage of the fact that Sidama Bunna are having some difficulty. Before coming into this match, Hawassa's most recent matches resulted in back-to-back defeats, as they were defeated by Dire Dawa and Fasil Kenema, respectively. Despite this, they are in a good position in the 8th spot in the standings for the Ethiopia Premier League, and a win today may take them as high as the 6th spot in the standings.

Sidama Bunna have not been playing at their best recently, and the away team just ended a run of six games in which they did not win. Sidama Bunna's most recent game was against Adama City, and they ended up losing by a score of 3-1. Adama City scored the first three goals of the match, while Sidama Bunna scored their goal in the 74th minute of the game. Sidama Bunna are now fighting for their relegation lives in this competition, and another loss here would be devastating for them.

Sidama Bunna and Hawassa have come face-to-face five times between 2021 and the present. Two of those victories went to Sidama Bunna, while three went to Hawassa in those encounters. Sidama Bunna and Hawassa both scored seven goals in those matches.

Due to the fact that none of these clubs is significantly better than the other, we anticipate a match that will be quite close. However, due to the fact that neither team is very proficient at putting away high-quality chances to score goals, we anticipate this match to have a low goal total. Despite this, we anticipate the home team to emerge victorious in this match.
