Contents
The first ever meeting between Ethiopia and Cape Verde is an AFCON game that will be played in Cameroon. Ethiopia, Cape Verde are grouped alongside the AFCON hosts Cameroon and Burkina Faso. Here is a detailed analysis of the best picks for this game.
Under 2.5 @ 1/2 (1.50)
A low scoreline is a probable outcome in this fixture. This is the first AFCON fixture for both sides and so, a tense game is expected in the capital, Yaoundé. Cape Verde has not lost in the last four matches while Ethiopia has back to back draws of 1-1 before this match. Both sides haven’t been scoring lots of goals, so a low scoreline is what we expect on matchday.
Cape Verde to win @ 89/100 (1.89)
Cape Verde is our pick to win this game. They have the experience at this level and ranked better by FIFA than Ethiopia. At position 73 compared to Ethiopia’s 137th place, Cape Verde is undoubtedly one of the best African soccer teams. However, we don’t expect a big winning margin for Cape in this first encounter with Ethiopia is both sides will likely adopt a defensive approach on matchday.
