Somalia

FIFA Ranking: 196th

Last five games: WLLLL

The Ocean Stars started their qualifying campaign with a (3-1) loss against Algeria. Somalia were lucky to have come off with a (3-1) defeat, as Algeria were below par in that game.

Somalia are yet to feature in any competitive tournament before and have played twice this year. Somalia are one of the lowest-ranked teams in this tournament, and their prayer here is not to concede much.

Uganda

FIFA Ranking: 90th

Last five games: LWLLL

The Cranes kicked off their campaign with a (2-1) defeat against Guinea on the road. After a (1-1) stalemate at the break, Uganda thought they had a point in the bag until Guinea scored in the 94th minute.

The Cranes have been struggling since the commencement of the beginning of this year and have picked up seven points from a possible eighteen in the AFCON Qualifier.

Uganda will rely solely on top striker Fahad Bayo to bag in goals on their journey here.

Expert Betting Tips

Their last two meetings ended in a win for Uganda, who scored six times, while Somalia managed to score once. Uganda have not been in great shape in their last three games but will lock horns against a Somalia side who are yet to win in a long time. This game is expected to produce more than two goals for 2.26.

We think the Cranes will get a halftime victory here for 1.90.

Uganda might even get more than a goal before the break for 3.00.

Good luck!
