Negele Arsi Ketema vs Mebrat Hayl: match statistics

150%(1.98)
X35%(2.95)
215%(4.10)

Negele Arsi Ketema sits higher in the table (3rd place) and displays solid form at home, winning 45% of their home matches with only an 18% loss rate. The hosts boast a positive goal difference at their stadium (+4) and keep clean sheets in 45% of matches, which proves their good defensive organization. Mebrat Hayl, as the away team, performs significantly worse, winning only 18% of away games and failing to score in a staggering 64% of their road fixtures. Despite the visitors' better form over their last five overall matches (1.6 PPG), their offensive weakness away from home (0.64 goals on average) and the hosts' home advantage point towards a victory for Negele Arsi Ketema. Considering both teams' tendency to draw (36% for the hosts, 45% for the visitors), splitting the points is not out of the question; however, home-field advantage should give the hosts the crucial edge.
