We predict Simba will win this match by a narrow margin, because they have a strong attacking trio of Miquissone, Kibu and Phiri, who have scored 10 goals in the last five matches. They also have a home advantage, as they play at the National Stadium in Dar es Salaam, where they have won four of their last five matches. Mimosas have a solid defensive line led by Coulibaly, but they may struggle to cope with Simba SC’s pace and creativity.
