Belouizdad vs Merreikh Predictions by Football Ground Guide

Both teams play their fourth CAF Champions League. Here is how we have tipped the teams to perform against each other in this Group D fixture of the 20223/23 CAF Champions League:

Total Match Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

The first Belouizdad vs Merreikh prediction is under 2.5 goals full-time result. We haven't seen many goals from these teams so far in the CAF Champions League competition. Al-Merrikh has mostly relied on defending to get results, which earned them crucial three points at home against Belouizdad.  On the other hand, Belouizdad had a clean sheet win in the first group stage game before leaking a goal in each of their last two games against Esperance Tunis and Merreikh.

Match Result Prediction: Belouizdad to Win

The second Belouizdad vs Merreikh prediction backs the host to win. Despite being the favourites in the first leg, Belouizdad still lost. However, playing at home will come with a highly charged atmosphere as the fight for a playoff spot continues. It is the second meeting between the teams and we expect nothing short of a win for Belouzdad.

Correct Score Prediction: 0-0 Half-Time

Algeria's Belouizdad is expected to take a highly defensive approach to this game, knowing the top is at stake and a loss will complicate their quest for a playoff off. On the flip side, the visitors will be keen to avoid a defeat at away from home after winning  1-0 in the first leg. We expect a deadlocked clash with no breakthrough in the first half. We predict a correct score of 0-0 at the half-time break. With that, our last Belouizdad vs Merreikh prediction is a 0-0 correct score at the interval.

Belouizdad vs Merreikh Preview

Belouizdad

Belouizdad was hard to play against last season in the CAF Champions League. However, the Algerian side has only been a struggling outfit in this year's competition. They lost the last two matches in the competition-a 0-1 home defeat against Esperance Tunis and lately, against Merreikh. The now have a chance to avenge their loss in the first leg in the second meeting with Merreikh. However, due to poor scoring form, we think this will be another underwhelming performance from Belouizdad.

Merreikh

Al-Merreikh of Sudan won the first leg against Algeria's Belouizdad. They now have to work even hard to get at least a point away from home in the second leg. Noting that Belouizdad has lost the only home game they have played so far, we think this match could end either way because only a point separates the sides as second spot remains open for grabs.
