Dodoma Jiji vs Simba Prediction & Betting Tips (16 May)

Before playing next match, Dodoma Jiji had been on a dreadful run of form on their own patch, drawing three and losing six of their previous nine top-flight fixtures, so a visit from Simba is hardly ideal. Speaking of the defending champions, although they have not been the force of old recently, they have still triumphed four times in seven Ligi Kuu Bara trips.

12 of the last 18 Simba matches at the top table of the Ligi Kuu Bara had been of the under 2.5 goals variety, so excitement has been in fairly short supply. Not only that, but, before last match, nine of the previous 15 Dodoma Jiji games at this level had also delivered no more than a couple of successful strikes.

At least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet from 15 of the previous 18 league games involving Simba, and both of their meetings with Dodoma Jiji last season finished goalless. Speaking of the hosts, eight of their most recent 12 home matches have followed the same pattern, so anyone expecting a thriller is likely to be disappointed by this contest.
