Cape Verde vs Mozambique team news
Cape Verde
Despite the huge difference in odds to finishing at the top of the group between Cape Verde and the two main favourites to win Group B, it is Cape Verde who are in the driver's seat after the first round and their surprising win over Ghana. Given that Mozambique and Egypt drew in the other game, a win in this match would already put Cape Verde in the next stage.
Predicted Lineup – Vozinha – Moreira, Pico, Costa, Paulo – Duarte, Monteiro, Pina – Mendes, Bebe, Cabral
Mozambique
Just like their next opponent, Mozambique also surprised the world in the first round by drawing with Egypt, one of the main favourites to go all the way and last AFCON's finalists. Not only that, but Mozambique led until the stoppage time, when Salah converted a late penalty to save Egypt's graces. Still, Mozambique fans can be optimistic ahead of this next match with Cape Verde.
Predicted Lineup – Ernani – Macandza, Dove, Mexer, Mandava – Witi, Amade, Guima, Gildo – Clesio – Ratifo
Confirmed Cape Verde vs Mozambique lineups will appear here around 60 minutes before kickoff.

Player to watch: Ryan Mendes
Although it was Monteiro and Rodrigues that did the scoring against Ghana, our player to watch in this match is Cape Verde's captain Ryan Mendes. The 34-year-old striker has plenty of experience, which will come in handy for this game as he will make sure his teammates remain focused and grounded.
