Top bets to back in the Tanzania Premier League

Last Updated: 16:44 GMT+2, Fri 31 October 2025. Written by Louis Kalinga

With three key fixtures set for this weekend in the NBC Premier League, the title race remains tight at the top.

Mbeya City, Dodoma Jiji, and Mashujaa are level on eight points after six matches, while the league’s heavyweights return to action looking to close the gap.

Tanzania Prisons vs Young Africans — Saturday, 4pm

Tanzania Prisons sit ninth after a hard-fought 2–1 win over Mbeya City last weekend. However, they face a serious test against an unbeaten Young Africans side that thrashed them 5–0 in their last meeting.

Yanga have looked sharp in all departments and continue to dominate possession and goals scored. With confidence high and superior quality across the pitch, an away win looks the most logical play.

Pick: Young Africans to win (1.40). BTTS “Yes” (1.60) also offers fair value.

Simba vs Azam — Saturday, 4pm

Simba enter the round in seventh place with six points, two clear of Azam, who sit in 14th. Their recent league clash against TRA was postponed, meaning their last outing was a commanding 3–0 win over Namungo on 1 October.

Simba’s attacking rhythm remains strong, while Azam’s defensive lapses have cost them points in tight games. Although these sides drew 2–2 in their last encounter, Simba’s squad depth and home advantage should prove decisive this time.

Pick: Simba to win (1.40).

Singida Black Stars vs Tabora United — Monday, 4pm

A victory for Singida could lift them into the NBC Premier League’s top three for the first time this season. They currently sit on six points, while struggling Tabora remain winless and second from bottom.

Singida dominated the last meeting between these sides and are expected to do so again. With better form, momentum, and attacking options, the hosts should claim another comfortable win.

Pick: Singida Black Stars to win (1.20).
