Rukinzo vs Deira Prediction: Expect goals galore in this fixture

Burundi Primus League game at Intwari, Stade in Bujumbura will see Rukinzo play Deira in week 15. The two teams are coming off a defeat and will hope for a positive outcome. Let’s preview this first-ever meeting between these sides and provide betting opportunities. 

Rukinzo

Rukinzo suffered a defeat against Vital’O the previous time out and will hope for a win here. In a game that ended 4-3, Rukinzo’s try defensively was not enough to see them concede for the seventh time in five games. However, prior encounters to that defeat saw this team go six games without a defeat, winning four and drawing two. In the meantime, Rukinzo have scored 19 goals and conceded 16 in 11 league games this season. Seated in the standings is 10th place, accumulating 18 points. 

Deira

Deira lost to Inter Star the previous time out, a game that ended 0-4 and will hope to turn things around. However, the visiting team has failed to win any of their last matches, a run that has extended to ten. In fact, Deira's best result in recent games was a draw with Dynamik, as other games ended in defeats. This season, Deira have eight points from a possible 39, leaving them seated 14th spot. In 13 games, Deira scored 12 goals while conceding 26. 

Expert Betting Tips

There are a lot of expectations in this fixture, as the two teams are expected to give it their all. While Deira are away from home, their performances to this stage of the season are far from competitive and need to show character. However, Rukinzo were heavily thrashed the previous time out, showing how weak their defense is against stronger sides. Overall, the two teams have a poor defence line, looking at how many goals they have conceded this season, this game is definitely a goalscoring type. Also, while Rukinzo are well favoured in this game, I expect them to return to winning ways as the team with the league experience.
