This evening, the CAF Africa Cup of Nations Qualifiers promises an electrifying encounter as South Africa takes on South Sudan at 18:00. With fans buzzing in anticipation, both teams are set to put their skills to the test in what could be a decisive game in the qualifiers. Here’s everything you need to know before kick-off.

Breaking Down the Odds

Easybet offers a clear picture of where the CAF Africa Cup of Nations Qualifiers stand going into the match:

  • South Africa to win: 1.18

South Africa, known for their cohesive gameplay and solid defensive lineup, is the strong favourite. With odds like these, the Bafana Bafana are expected to dominate proceedings.

A draw is always a possibility in soccer, but this outcome is seen as less likely given South Africa’s strong track record in qualifying stages.

  • South Sudan to win: 17.0

South Sudan enters as the underdog. With their odds stacked against them, the Bright Stars will need to deliver a near-perfect performance to upset South Africa.

What’s at Stake?

For South Africa, the CAF Africa Cup of Nations Qualifiers is more than just another qualifier—it’s a chance to solidify their spot in the tournament and prove their growing dominance in African soccer. Players like Themba Zwane and Percy Tau will look to deliver standout performances to secure the win.

South Sudan, on the other hand, maybe outsiders in this clash, but they’ve shown glimpses of brilliance in past matches. With resilience and a bit of luck, they could shock the soccer world.

Key Players to Watch

  • South Africa: Themba Zwane, the experienced midfielder, will be pivotal in dictating the tempo of the game and setting up chances for Percy Tau, South Africa’s most clinical forward. Tau’s pace and skill in one-on-one situations will be critical in breaking down South Sudan’s defence. With his recent goal-scoring form, Tau remains the player to watch.

 

  • South Sudan: Tito Okello, South Sudan’s reliable forward, carries the weight of his team’s attacking hopes. Known for his ability to hold up the ball and create chances out of tight spaces, Okello’s partnership with his midfield playmakers will be essential if South Sudan hopes to unlock South Africa’s defence. Keeper Majak Mawith will also play a crucial role, needing to be at his absolute best to keep South Sudan in the game.
