Young Africans vs Medeama prediction and betting tips on December 20, 2023
CAF Champions League
Game Prediction
This week, one can’t do without the Champions League. Just not the one under the auspices of the UEFA – there was no hurry to hold the tournament in Africa, and the teams have now only reached the 4th round of the group stage. Young Africans and Medeama will compete with each other on Wednesday. The experts of the website made a prediction for the match on December 20, 2023.
Young Africans are far from demonstrating the performance that has been expected
“The Yanga” represents modest Tanzania. Still, firstly, the team dominates the local Premier League, defending the championship title in the spring and showing good statistics in the new season. Secondly, there was also an all-African success recently: the club reached the final of the Confederations Cup in the 2022/2023 competition. It seemed that the Champions League was going well: a confident overcoming of ASAS in qualifying and a 1-0 score in the struggle with Al-Merreikh in the decisive match. Then, being already at the group stage, it all started with a devastating 0-3 result on the field of Belouizdad. And it continued with the same 1-1 draws, with Al-Ahly at the home arena and Medeama on the away field. So, the so-called “equator” was achieved in the last place of the quartet.
Medeama “shot” in the previous season
“The Blue and Yellows” managed to win the previous draw of the Ghana Premier League. Moreover, they were finally ahead of their closest pursuer, Aduana Stars, by 5 points. Nowadays, they are far from being as good – they have slipped into the very middle of the table and are demonstrating the same modest results. Nevertheless, it manages to show its best side in the Champions League. First, the team had to go through a couple of rounds of qualification: Remo Stars, after exchanging minimal victories, was eliminated on penalties; the confrontation with Horoya started with a home 3-1 success, after which the team could afford to lose with a 1-2 result on the away field. The group stage began with a major, 0-3, defeat. Still, the representative of Ghana first “snatched” a victory over Belouizdad on their own field, scoring against the Algerians at the end of each half, and then drew the guests from Tanzania.
Previous head-to-head matches
