In the first H2H game this season, we saw a goalless draw. However, Welayta Dicha were a better team in that game at home and probably deserved at least a minimal win. Looking further back, over the past ten h2h games, Bahir Dar Kenema secured four wins, while Welatya Dicha secured only one. 

Regarding the number of goals, eight of the past ten h2h games ended with fewer than three goals, while both teams scored in only one of those.

Bahir Dar Kenema team overview

Bahir Dar Kenema had a very good last season, finishing 3rd and missing the continental qualifiers only by six points. Last season, they averaged 1.59 points per game, but weren't as good this year. After 34 rounds, they won 46 points, which is around 1.35 points per game. The main issue this season has been their poor offense, as they are one of the worst teams in the league. Only four teams have had a worse offensive record. Still, a pretty good defense is keeping them pretty high on the league's table. 

At the moment, they are seven points away from 2nd place and the continental qualifiers. So, even though they have a mathematical chance of reaching it, we highly doubt they have a real chance of going on a winning streak and surprising everyone. That will be especially true given they will mostly face good teams from the upper half of the league table.

Welayta Dicha

Welayta Dicha team overview

Wolayta Dicha won the Ethiopian Cup last year and had a decent 5th-place finish. This year, they had an atrocious start to the season, losing the first four games. Before that start, they were also eliminated from the CAF Confederation Cup by Al Ittihad (LBY) on a 3:1 aggregate. Later, they consolidated, and even though they sit in 11th place, they are only one win away from 5th place. Also, just like their opponents, Wolayta Dicha have no particular motive in this game, considering it is highly unexpected that they can go on some kind of run and climb to second place.
