Buildcon vs ZESCO tips and predictions

ZESCO too short in Super League encounter

You'd be forgiven for thinking that ZESCO just have to turn up, but the visitors are too short a price. While they are rightly the clear favourites their price renders them unbackable as far as this preview is concerned.

Buildcon will have taken notes from ZESCO's setbacks in their recent results. The losses have gradually been mounting up for this away squad over their last 3 fixtures. They've lost 2 of them. That doesn't look like the recent record of a side that is such a massive favourite.

And while they are expected to dispose of Buildcon they are not a banker and a home win could be a reasonable play.

Buildcon need to accept that their chances are likely to come against the run of play. While ultimately probably not enough to change the result of the match, the hosts have posted some good numbers. These home players have found some form on their own turf. They scored at least once in 5 of their recent 7 home matches while kudos is also due for their defence. At the back they have kept a clean sheet in 2 of their last 5 home games.

When tested away from home ZESCO have conceded one or more times in all of their last 4 matches. And their problems aren't limited to their defensive line. The attacking form shown by the visitors is nothing to send their rivals into a cloud of panic. They averaged just 0.5 goals in their last 16 away matches.

It's possible the game ends with at least one clean sheet because of the obvious favouritism for ZESCO. The BTTS No could be sensible.
