This Group D fixture could be decisive for both sides as they chase qualification in what promises to be a high-stakes encounter. Zambia will look to maintain their COSAFA pedigree, while Botswana aims to kick off their campaign with momentum.
Come si presentano le due squadre?
Botswana enters the match with fresh legs, having not featured in the opening round. They will be eager to make their mark in Group D and will lean on home support to spark their tournament journey. Confidence could be high as they seek a winning start.
Zambia, by contrast, have already navigated the opening game and claimed valuable points to top the standings. Their experience in tight regional battles makes them formidable opponents, but consistency will be key in order to sustain their push for the playoffs.
La nostra previsione
Given the contrasting rhythms, this tie could lean in favor of the more battle–hardened Zambia side. We forecast a competitive affair with Zambia edging out a narrow victory. Expect a disciplined defensive display with opportunistic strikes.
However, don’t discount Botswana’s potential to disrupt the balance, especially if they capitalize on set–piece situations. A draw cannot be ruled out, making the “both teams to score” market an attractive proposition for punters seeking value.
