Our prediction for this Africa Cup of Nations 2021 match:
Congo
Match Time & Date:
17/11/2019
11:00 AM
Prediction: 1-1
Guinea Bissau
As expected, Guinea-Bissau kicked off their Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign with a 3-0 win over Eswantini. The Djurtus are on a three-game winning run in all competitions, but the game against Congo will be anything but a walk in the park for the visitors. Congo’s performance in a 2-0 loss to Senegal was anything but poor; therefore, we predict that they are going to grab something from Sunday’s qualifier against Guinea-Bissau.
A close encounter is on the cards in Brazzaville, and we believe that the two teams are going to share the spoils at Stade Alphonse Massamba-Debat. A man to keep an eye on in the away team Jorge Intima, who found the net in the 3-0 victory over Eswatini. You should bear in mind that in their last meeting in a competitive match Congo defeated Guinea-Bissau 1-0.
