Football tips: Don Bosco vs Renaissance - predictions and betting guide

There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Super Ligue match only four days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Motema Pembe, was also a home game here at Stade du TP Mazembe. The away team is better rested.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Renaissance have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 0-0-3 (win-draw-loss) from three matches.

It's time to recharge all electronic entertainment devices for Renaissance, who are travelling more than 3800 kilometers to play this game.

Don Bosco form and stats

When playing at home in the Super Ligue, Don Bosco have managed 5 wins, 3 draws and suffered 6 defeats from 14 games. Bosco has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager and the players.

The Bosco crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Motema Pembe here at Stade du TP Mazembe in a Super Ligue match.

Before that game, the home loss against Vita Club with the scoreline 0-1.

Bosco has scored 18 league goals at home this season, in 14 matches. On the other hand, Bosco have conceded 15 goals.

Renaissance form and stats

There's been little loot from Renaissance's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 12 away games in the Super Ligue. Renaissance only have 2 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 3 draws. A depressing four defeats in a row for Renaissance in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus AC Rangers.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Renaissance, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-3 versus RCK (placed 13th).

A draw for Renaissance before that, at their own venue hosting AC Rangers (0-0).

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Renaissance manager as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Groupe Bazano.

The attacking power of Renaissance when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 12 league matches away. Renaissance have conceded 18 goals in these games.
