Double chance : Start or draw

Start are having a rough time. They have lost four of their last five games and their most recent match ended in a heavy defeat, so confidence will be low. Their only bright spot was a narrow win a while back, but otherwise they have struggled to score and have been conceding plenty. Ham-Kam have also been inconsistent, mixing a big win with some heavy losses, so neither team comes into this looking especially strong.

The last time these two met, Ham-Kam won by the odd goal in a game with a few goals, so that one was fairly open. Given how both sides have been leaking goals and struggling for steady results, this looks like it could be a close and fairly open match. Start have home advantage and their recent form is slightly less chaotic than Ham-Kam's, but neither team is convincing. It feels like a game that could easily end level, with Start just edging the chances of a win over Ham-Kam.
