Marumo Gallants vs Saint-Eloi-Lupopo Predictions


Victory for Marumo Gallants will see them secure top spot in the group. They have won three of their five matches, including a win against this opposition earlier this season.

I’m backing BTTS Yes in this fixture with Gallants to win.

  • Marumo Gallants have won 3 of their last 5 Confederations Cup matches.
  • Saint-Eloi Lupopo have seen under 2.5 goals in their last 3 Confederations Cup matches.
  • Saint-Eloi Lupopo has scored in each of their last 4 Confederations Cup matches.

Head to Head


These two sides have only met once before. That fixture took place earlier in the group stage when Gallants won 2-1 away from home.

Marumo Gallants Form 


Marumo Gallants have already qualified for the next round of the CAF Confederations Cup. They have won three of their five group games thus far and sit top of the table with nine points.

However, the hosts need a victory here to confirm top spot as USM Alger can still overtake Gallants if they better the result.

Gallants beat Al-Akhdar 4-1 at home in their Confederations Cup opener before seeing off Saint-Eloi Lupopo 2-1 away in the second game week. That was followed by a 2-0 defeat at USM Alger.

Gallants bounced back to beat USM Alger 2-0 at home in the following game before going down 4-1 at Al-Akhdar last time out.

Marumo Gallants Injuries & Team News


Gallants have no injury concerns ahead of this match. They are expected to be at full strength given the importance of finishing top of the table.

Saint-Eloi Lupopo Form


While it is still mathematically possible to qualify for the next round, Saint Eloi’s hopes are very slip. They will need to win this weekend and then home USM Alger suffer a defeat. On top of that the visitors here will need to overturn a six-goal difference.

Saint Eloi lost their opening two games to USM Alger away and at home to Marumo Gallants. It was followed by an impressive 1-0 home success against Al-Akhdar.

The last two games have both ended in 1-1 draws at Al-Akhdar and at home to USM Alger.

Saint-Eloi Lupopo Injuries & Team News


Saint Eloi still have a chance of qualifying but they will need to beat Gallants comfortably. It is very unlikely that they will progress but still a full strength squad has traveled to South Africa.

Verdict

I am backing BTTS Yes with a Marumo Gallants win.
