Angola vs Eswatini Prediction: The Giant Sable Antelopes will secure their first win in the group

The Giant Sable Antelopes will play their third group game against winless Eswatini at the Estádio 11 de Novembro on Friday. Angola are two points behind Cameroon at the top of the standings, and they will be looking at closing the gap when they face off against bottom-table Eswatini.

Angola

FIFA Ranking: 94th

Last five matches: WWLLD

The Giant Sable Antelopes moved thirteen places up in the latest FIFA Rankings following their decent outing at AFCON. Angola began their FIFA Qualifying campaign with a stalemate against Cape Verde and Mauritius away from home. They failed to find the back of the net in both matches, but it was a fantastic result. 

Angola have named a strong side for this clash, and they’ll be hopeful of assuming the top spot. 

Eswatini

FIFA Ranking: 148th

Last five games: LLLWD

The King’sShield have had a terrible start to this qualifying campaign with back-to-back defeats. They began their journey with a (0-1) home loss against Libya and failed to impress on their ground against Cape Verde. They were unable to find the back of the net in both games at home while conceding three times. Their last two games have ended in a win and a stalemate against the lowest-ranked side in the continent. 

Eswatini's last appearance in this tournament earned them two points from a combined eighteen. 

Expert Betting Tips

The Giant Sable Antelopes are yet to taste victory over their last three matches in all competitions, even though it was against high rated teams. They had a successful outing at the AFCON Tournament and considering the way they played, we expect a more aggressive approach against their opponent. On the other hand, the guests are mostly dominated by locally trained players and we can’t see them pulling a stunt here.

Angola are well positioned to win this game as they pose more threat than their opponent; bet on a home win and over 1.5 goals for 1.88.

We expect to see more than two goals here for 2.25.

This game will end in a (3-0) victory for the hosts.

Good luck!
