Here's what we know about the ES Tunis - Métlaoui match:

The hosts Tunis saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the CAF Champions League. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at CR Belouizdad.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Métlaoui have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 3-7-18 (win-draw-loss) from 28 matches.

Tunis are already the Ligue 1 winners and can relax with the season objective secured. If they do relax it might give the away team a slightly better chance in this one. Métlaoui are fighting to avoid relegation and will work hard for points.

ES Tunis form and stats

Home games in the Ligue 1 have been a walk in the park for ES Tunis so far, with 32 points won from 12 matches; 10 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses. The ES Tunis fans aren't used to losing league-games here at Stade Olympique de Radès and will expect new points from this game. ES Tunis has played twelve games in a row here without a defeat.

Tunis are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-2 away versus CR Belouizdad. The goalie M. Ben Cherifia was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 0.0 out of ten. Cherifia .

A Ligue 1 defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at CA Bizertin.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Tunis as they have a new game in only three days, a CAF Champions League match thankfully also at home. CR Belouizdad are visiting.

The Tunis fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 17 in 12 matches. Tunis have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 4 goals.

Métlaoui form and stats

There's been little loot from Métlaoui's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 12 away games in the Ligue 1. Métlaoui, who have the fewest scored goals (4) away in Ligue 1, only have 1 win to counter their 6 defeats and 5 draws.

Métlaoui had fun at their own home (Stade Olympique de Radès) last time out, beating Monastir 2-0.

A 0-1 defeat away at Rejiche before that.

Métlaoui are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 4 goals from 12 away games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. It's not easy to score on Métlaoui as they have only conceded 10 goals from these away games.
