St. George vs Welayta Dicha Prediction: Bet on the hosts to win

The Ethiopia Premier League clash is set to unfold at Addis Ababa Stadium, featuring a face-off between St. George and Welayta Dicha. In their recent encounter, St. George secured a victory on the road, concluding the match with a 1-2 scoreline. Now, let's delve into a comprehensive preview of this match and make a prediction.

St. George

St. George bounced back to the winning column in their recent match against the league's top side, Ethiopia Nigd Bank, securing a convincing 0-3 victory. Amanuel Erbo's strike in the 39th minute gave St. George the lead, and red cards for Suleman Hamid and Firew Getahum from the Ethiopia Nigd Bank side tilted the advantage in St. George's favor. They capitalized on this situation, netting two additional goals in the last ten minutes of the match. Edwin Nana Tuffour Frimpong and Habton Gebregziabehare scored in the 83rd and 90+8 minutes, respectively. As they approach the upcoming match, St. George currently holds the 4th position in the league standings with 24 points, trailing league leaders Defence Force by six points, and a victory in this match could narrow the gap to three points.

Welayta Dicha

Similar to the hosts, Welayta Dicha also made a successful return to winning form in their recent encounter against Hambericho Durame, securing a 1-0 victory. The lone goal came from Biniam Fikre in the last minute of the first half, proving to be the deciding factor as the second half remained goalless. With this win, Welayta Dicha has now recorded three victories in their last five matches, including notable wins against Ethiopia Nigd Bank and Wolkite Ketema. However, it's important to highlight that Welayta Dicha experienced a loss to Hawassa and played to a draw with Hadiya Hossana during this same streak.

Expert Betting Tips

Both teams are showcasing commendable performances, making it challenging to underestimate either side in this encounter. However, considering St. George's home advantage and their strong form in the league, it appears they have an edge, and I anticipate them securing a victory. Additionally, while Welayta Dicha has shown proficiency in the offensive department, I expect both teams to find the back of the net in this match.
