Zarzis welcome Etoile du Sahel on Saturday, Dec 19 at 5:30 PM in a Ligue I fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Zarzis come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 4). Etoile du Sahel, meanwhile, arrive out of form (1W 2L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Despite playing at home, Zarzis face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Etoile du Sahel have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Zarzis won 3–1. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Zarzis a slight edge, but Etoile du Sahel are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
