15 de Agosto vs Simba Predictions


15 de Agosto face Tanzanian giants Simba in the first leg of their CAF Champions League second preliminary-round tie on Tuesday.

Although 15 de Agosto are officially the home team, the match will take place behind closed doors at Uhuru Stadium in Dar es Salaam, giving Simba a significant advantage.

The Tanzanian side have won all eight of their domestic league matches this season and are in excellent form. Simba to win is the selection.

  • 15 de Agosto won both legs of their opening CAF Champions League tie.
  • 15 de Agosto have kept 2 clean sheets in 2 CAF Champions League matches this season.
  • 15 de Agosto have won 3 of their last 4 CAF matches.
  • Simba have won all 8 of their domestic league matches this season.
  • Simba have scored 19 goals in 8 league matches.
  • Simba have won their last 5 matches in all competitions.

Head to Head


This will be the first meeting between 15 de Agosto and Simba.

15 de Agosto Form


15 de Agosto advanced to the second preliminary round after defeating Fomboni of Comoros 5-0 on aggregate.

They recorded a comfortable 4–0 victory in the first leg before winning the return fixture 1-0 away from home on 3 October.

The Equatorial Guinean side also competed in last season's CAF Confederation Cup, where they eliminated Foresters of Seychelles before facing South Africa's Stellenbosch in the second preliminary round.

They held Stellenbosch to a goalless draw in the first leg but suffered a 4-1 defeat in the return fixture, ending their continental campaign.

Simba Form


Simba have made an outstanding start to the season under former Stellenbosch coach Steve Barker, winning all eight of their Tanzanian Premier League matches.

They have scored 19 goals and conceded just four, establishing a six-point lead at the top of the standings.

Simba defeated Mighty Wanderers of Malawi 7-1 on aggregate in the first preliminary round of the CAF Champions League.

A 1–0 away victory was followed by a convincing 6-1 home win to secure their place in the second round.

Their domestic form has been equally impressive. Simba defeated Azam 2-0 away before beating rivals Young Africans 2-1 in the Kariakoo Derby on 10 October.

They followed that result with a 6-1 victory over Mashujaa on 13 October, with Elie Mpanzu scoring twice.

Simba will now look to continue their winning run and establish an advantage ahead of the return leg.

Verdict

Simba are in superb form and this game is being played behind closed doors, which means the "hosts" don't have an advantage. We are backing Simba to win to nil.
