Club Africain vs Rivers United stats and predictions

We would like to point out that this will be the fourth round of matches; and as it stands, Rivers United, Club Africain and Dreams FC are all tied with six points from the first three matches. On the other hand, Academica do Lobito are last on the table with no points. Bearing that in mind, these are our Club Africain vs Rivers United predictions:

Prediction 1: Rivers United or draw

It can be said that Club Africain have seven wins in their last nine matches. However, they had a seven-match winning streak, which ended when they faced Rivers United in the reverse fixture. As it stands, the Tunisian side have lost back-to-back games.

In contrast, Rivers United are coming off back-to-back victories, with four wins in their last six matches. Considering how they fared against Club Africain 10 days ago, we are fairly confident that the Nigerian outfit will not lose this game.

Prediction 2: At least one team will fail to score

We've established that Club Africain lost their last two matches. It may also interest you to know that they did not score any goals in those games. In fact, most of the host team's recent matches have been one-sided in goal-scoring terms; as both teams managed to score in just one of their last six matches.

Likewise, at least one team blanked in four of Rivers United's last six games. Taking into account that one team did not score the last two times these teams met, we shouldn't expect goals at both ends.

Prediction 3: Less than three total goals

Our last Club Africain vs Rivers United prediction is on the over/under goals market. We would like to point out that Club Africain have been involved in a few low-scoring games these past few weeks; as five of their last six matches went below the 2.5 goal line.

Similarly, Rivers United are coming into this match on the back of two consecutive victories where they did not concede any goals. Taking into account that the reverse fixture of this clash produced just one goal, we don't think these teams will score up to three goals between them.
