Steadfast vs Tamale City: match preview on 28 September 2026

Steadfast to Win

Confidence: 60%

I expect Steadfast to edge Tamale City at home on 28 September, a result backed by their superior recent form and a 1:0 win over the visitors in December 2022.

Steadfast's Recent Form

Steadfast have won two and drawn one of their last five matches, earning seven points with seven goals scored and six conceded. Their most recent outing on 18 September ended 1:1 at home against Wa Power, while they have shown they can score — three goals against STK Stars in January 2023 — and defend adequately.

Tamale City's Recent Form

Tamale City have taken only four points from five games, winning once, drawing once, and losing three times. They scored six goals and conceded nine, with their most recent result a 1:0 home victory over Northern City on 19 September. Their defensive record is concerning — they have conceded in four of five matches.

Head-to-Head and League Position

The two sides met once before, on 26 December 2022, when Steadfast won 1:0 away from home in a cup tie. In the current First Division League, Tamale City sit third with three points from one match, while Steadfast are fifth with one point from one match. Both teams have played once so far this season.

Expected Outcome

Steadfast to win, with the home side's better form and head-to-head record providing the edge. A 1:0 or 2:1 scoreline is most likely, though the match could easily end in a draw given both teams' modest attacking output.

What could go wrong

The prediction changes if Tamale City's early-season momentum continues — they started with a win while Steadfast drew — or if the visitors' defense proves more resilient than their recent record suggests. Tamale City have shown they can grind out results even when not at their best.
