Ethiopia vs Lesotho Prediction: A competitive encounter with hosts winning at full time

Ethiopia and Lesotho are scheduled to clash in an International Friendly match at Addis Ababa Stadium. Leading up to this encounter, the teams hav🦄e previously faced off four times. How will this one 🌜end?

Following a disappointing performance in the AFCON, Ethiopia enters this match hoping to showcase their best form. In their opening match against Egypt, Ethiopia suffered a 1-0 defeat, but they managed to secure one point with a goalless draw against Sierra Leone in their second match. However, a 0-3 loss to Burkina Faso in their third match resulted in Ethiopia's failure to advance beyond the group stages. With no victories and no goals scored throughout their AFCON campaign, Ethiopia is undoubtedly disappointed with the outcome and will be eager to improve this time around. Additionally, Ethiopia has only managed to secure one victory in their last seven games, which was a 2-0 win against Guyana.

Lesotho has been unable to secure a victory in any of their last six matches across all competitions. As they approach this upcoming match, they will be banking on a change in fortune. With their absence from the last Africa Cup of Nations, Lesotho faces increased pressure to perform well in preparation for the 2025 AFCON. However, heading into this game, Lesotho has suffered three losses and managed three draws in their recent matches. Throughout these fixtures, Lesotho has only scored one goal while conceding five.

This match is antici🍃pated to be closely contested, similar to their previous encounters. Wꦦhile Ethiopia has typically been considered the slightly favored team, Lesotho has proven to be a formidable opponent. Considering the outcomes of their past meetings, it's likely that both teams will score in this match. However, given Ethiopia's home advantage, I anticipate them to emerge victorious as well.
