On Sunday, the Bafana Bafana of South Africa will square off with Botswana at the Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium. The host nation must be prepared to withstand the attacking threats of the Zebras if they are to secure a third-place finish.
South Africa
The five times COSAFA winners are one of the most successful teams in the tournament's history, having won it last year after a (4-5) penalty shootout win over Senegal. The Bafana Bafana are blessed with talented players playing in their local leagues, and their league is one of the best in Africa.
The Bafana Bafana of South Africa recorded a (1-2) victory over Mozambique and are set to battle Botswana for the plate trophy tomorrow.
South Africa have only lost once in the last eight matches in the COSAFA tournament.
South Africa sits in 68th place in the FIFA world ranking and have earned four points from a possible fifteen in the last five games.
Botswana
Keeping a 100% record in this competition during the group phase, the Zebras stumbled on a defeat against Zambia before bouncing back with a (2-0) win over Eswatini.
After being nominated as one of the favourites to win this year’s edition, the loss ended their pursuit of the trophy, and they are now set for a third place finish later tomorrow. They have been a constant participant in the tournament with nineteen appearances. Their best memory of this tournament was the runner-up finish in the 2016/2017 edition.
The Zebras, who are also participating in the ongoing CAF CAN have won three games, a draw and a loss.
Botswana are presently ranked 149 according to FIFA and have never qualified for the World Cup before.
Expert Betting Tips
The last eight games have ended in five wins for South Africa and two wins for Botswana while sharing points in a match.
Botswana is going to give the host a tough time, and we believe the match might extend to an extra time; however, both teams will likely get a goal each for 2.40.
We are tipping Botswana to either win or draw for 2.00.
Finally, we are suggesting a share of the spoils for 3.20.
Good luck!
