There should be a significant difference in quality between these teams based on table positions so far, with ES Tunis leading Métlaoui by 36 points.
The hosts Tunis saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Ligue 1. That game was an away game at Monastir, so at least ES Tunis are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
This pitch has grass, which is not Métlaoui's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on grass Métlaoui have performed like this: Played 29 matches resulting in 3 wins, 6 draws and 20 defeats with the goal stats 19-53 (scored/conceded).
ES Tunis have already won the league and the fans have gone wild! Even so, with the trophy already secured there could be issues regarding the team's motivation in this one. Métlaoui are struggling to avoid relegation.
ES Tunis form and stats
9-3-0 is the performance here at Stade Olympique de Radès so far in the Ligue 1, giving ES Tunis a total of 30 from their 12 games here. Outstanding results!
A good away victory last time out for Tunis, who won 1-0 against Monastir (placed 3rd). The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Chebba.
Tunis are traveling soon after this match as the Ligue 1 match at Kairouan awaits in three days.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (26 in 12 games), Tunis's attacking play is working. From these home matches, Tunis have conceded only 8 goals.
Métlaoui form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Métlaoui so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 0-4-8 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in twelve away games in a row.
There were no winners in Métlaoui's previous match, a Ligue 1 home game that ended 0-0 vs CA Bizertin (placed 14th). Prior to that match, the Métlaoui manager M. Kouki faced defeat when travelling to Tataouine and losing 1-3.
A new game in only three days for Métlaoui, the Ligue 1 home match versus Slimane. Busy days.
The visitors have scored 7 goals from 12 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. As for defending, Métlaoui rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 20 goals from these away matches.
