Recently, Ekadiza climbed up to the fifth place in the league with two consecutive wins after beating tough opponents.
Even though Ekadisha is not a top club in the sand, it carries the ambition to climb to the top of the league and succeed in winning a ticket to the AFC Champions League. As a result, they have not been shy to invest heavily in the transfer market with the intention of boosting the team's competitiveness through reinforcements.
I'm particularly optimistic about the forward pairing of Aubameyang and Kununis. They are like tigers coming down from the mountain and are extremely lethal. Kounounis has scored three goals in three consecutive matches, with a total of four goals from four players, while Aubameyang is also getting better, with two goals in his last three matches. Today, his matchup with Efikha's centerpiece Keith Smolenin will be the key to the game.
For today's match, Ekadisha is expected to adopt a 5-3-2 formation with Aubameyang and Kununis playing up front to create threats. Meanwhile, wingbacks Dukie Aimar and Mohamed Aishamat will be frequently inserted to assist, with a great threat from the side.
Of course, the role of former Real Madrid captain Nathan Fernandes should not be underestimated, as his leadership ensures the team's defense is tight and stable. This is the key factor that they only conceded 9 goals in 11 matches.
The opponents, Efeha, have only won one league game this season and are currently deep in the bottom of the league. However, they are on a roll with three wins in their last four matches.
If Zambian scorer Shakana is able to return from injury, his speed and power will pose a huge challenge to the Ekadisha defense. Lensu Lupis has scored 5 goals in his last 7 matches, which is expected to put a lot of pressure on the Ekadiza defense.
Nonetheless, I think Ekadiza still has the overall advantage and I believe they can easily beat their opponents with Aubameyang's goal to add to their tally.
