South Sudan vs Uganda Prediction: Can Uganda keep their run in this road game?

South Sudan and Uganda will battle it out in the second leg encounter of the AFCON qualifying encounter at Juba Stadium. The first leg encounter ended in Uganda’s favor. Can South Sudan secure a win in this one? 

South Sudan will look to do better in this game after losing the first leg of this game. In that encounter, South Sudan had 32 percent of the possession and had five shots attempted, with only two on goal. Heading into this game, South Sudan have failed to win any of their first three AFCON qualifying encounters. In those matches, South Sudan conceded five goals while scoring two.

Uganda will look to continue their unbeaten run in this AFCON qualifying after a win in the previous week. In the first leg of this game, Uganda had 68 percent of the possession and converted only one of the fourteen shots they attempted. In the meantime, Uganda could not get a goal until the 47th minute of the game, thanks to Bevis Mugabi’s strike. However, Uganda sit at the top of the standings with 7 points, scoring five goals and conceding two. 

South Sudan have struggled in back-to-back encounters, and I do not see them having things easy in this one. While Uganda are doing so well, we can expect them to be the better team here. South Sudan should be a tough team at home as they eye their first win in this qualifier. Uganda might be the better side again, as they have the players and the quality needed, and I am backing them here in a game that should involve goals this time.
