The Djurtus are now unbeaten in their last three matches – Guinea-Bissau shared a victory in the World Cup qualifier against Egypt. Mama Blade took the lead shortly before half-time, the Egyptians responded after the first half. Compared to the home game against Ethiopia, the performance was much better.

The hosts, who endured a terrible journey in the AFCON tournament, will look to adapt this time in this qualifying round. Guinea-Bissau have won once and drawn twice in their last five matches in all competitions. They need to win here to have a chance of making it to the tournament next year.

Guinea-Bissau's last appearance in this competition ended with four wins in six matches and second place in the table.

King's Shield has had a terrible start to the FIFA qualifying campaign with four consecutive defeats. Eswatini march here after ousting Somalia in the preliminary round. They won on aggregate (5-2) to secure their place in this group. Eswatini have scored one goal in their last four competitive matches and are the lowest-placed team in this group.

Eswatini's last appearance in this tournament earned the team three points out of a total of eighteen.

Expert betting tips

Guinea-Bissau have won their last two matches against the visitors, scoring six goals and conceding one. Eswatini have been below par of late, winning nine matches in all competitions. On the other hand, Guinea-Bissau have been on the up since the arrival of coach Luis Boa Morte.

Mama Balde and Ze Turbo are expected to start up front for the Djurtus, while Semedo and Bikel will take over the midfield. Guinea-Bissau is a football-mad country and given their recent performance against Egypt, we expect them to take advantage of their poorly organised opponent.

Guinea-Bissau have won their last two matches against Eswatini, scoring six times; bets on a total of more than 2.5 goals offer odds of 2.37.

We expect the hosts to score a goal in both halves (odds 2.90).

Good luck!
