Correct score: 0-2

  • South Africa's loss to Mali in the first round here had a 2-0 final score.

Half time draw

South Africa vs Tunisia prediction

South Africa vs Namibia team news

South Africa

Despite losing to Mali in the first round, South Africa managed to regroup and they've had one of the best performances in recent memory in a 4-0 thrashing over Namibia. Now the team has a great chance to get to the next stage, for which they only need a draw against Tunisia, though they might even go through with a loss in some scenarios.

Predicted Lineup: Williams – Mudau, Mvala, Xulu, Modiba – Maseko, Sithole, Mokoena, Tau – Lepasa, Zwane

Tunisia

While they did much better against Mali in the second round compared to their shocking loss to Namibia in the first round of the tournament, Tunisia still failed to win. So, with just one point, they must beat South Africa to secure their place in the next stage at AFCON 2023.

Meanwhile, Tunisia will have to manage without Taha Yassine Khenissi in this game and further, if they go through, since Khenissi has been ruled out with a knee injury.

Predicted LineupSaid – Abdi, Meriah, Talbi, Kechrida – Achouri, Ladouni, Skhiri, Rafia – Msakni, Slimane

Confirmed Namibia vs Mali lineups will appear here around 60 minutes before kickoff.

Player to watch: Youssef Msakni

While he has yet to score at this tournament, Msakni is Tunisia's top scorer at the moment. Not only that, but he is one of the more experienced players and the team's captain, which is why we see him doing well in this crucial game for his team.
