Eswatini vs Cape Verde Prediction: Both teams could settle for a draw again

As part of the qualifying tournament for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, Eswatini and Cape Verde will square off against one another on Tuesday at the Mbombela Stadium in Mbombela, South Africa. After playing to a stalemate in the first leg of this match, the two countries are going into the second leg hoping to come out on top.

After this matchday, Eswatini will have only two more games to play in their qualifying campaign; therefore, they will be extremely motivated to pick up wins and improve their chances of qualifying. Although they are currently in third place, Eswatini only have two points to their name after three matches played thus far in the qualifying rounds. Eswatini has not been victorious in any of their five most recent matches, with their three most recent matchups all ending in draws.

After playing to a goalless draw on Friday in Praia, Cape Verde's ranking in Group B is still the same as it was before the match. Cape Verde is now in second place in the AFCON tournament with four points after three games, and they have a chance to advance directly to the finals of the competition. In their most recent matches, Cape Verde only managed to win two of them, played to a draw once, and ended up losing two of them.

The teams battled to a miserable draw against one another the week before, and in order to improve their chances of qualifying for the next round, they could go all out in this match. Both teams are scheduled to face Burkina Faso, who is leading their group, in the remaining matches of the tournament, which could present a difficult challenge for them. Nonetheless, because there is a lack of quality on both teams' rosters, we are forecasting a narrow win for Cape Verde, which has a better team, but this time the two nations will score.
