Although they have only appeared twice in this tournament, Cape Verde have proven themselves to꧑ be a formidable force to be reckoned with. Cape Verde has also secured their place in the tournament for the second year running, finishing a solid second in their qualifying group. Although they've encountered some challenging games recently, including a loss against Tunisia, the Blue Sharks remain confident and f𝔍ocused on achieving success in this tournament.

Bubista men will be determined to ma🌺intain their momentum against their opponent, especially after their solid display against Ghana.

Cape Verde's possible starting lineup: Vozinha; Fernandes, Costa, Pico, Moreira; Pina, Duarte, Monteiro; Mendes, Cabral, Bebé

Key Player: Ryan Mendes

Mozambique

FIFA Ranking: 111th

Chiquinho Conde's men displayed a exceptional performance in the presence of the almighty Egypt and were almost on the verge of securing the maximum points. Mozambique, who went behind with just a few seconds of play, came back better and stronger, scoring two quick goals against the Pharaohs. However, Egypt piled more pressure and kept pushing until they were awarded a penalty with almost the last kick of tꦬhe game. The game, which ended in a (2-2) share of the spoils, was one of their best moments in a very long time. 

Mozambique were extremely belligerent in their approach to securing a space in the AFCON Tournament after picking up ten points from a possible eighteen. Despite the absence of one of their stars, Geny Catamo, the guests were able to perform exceptionally in front of goals but lacked coordination at the back. 

Mozambique's possible starting lineup: Siluane – Reinildo, Dove, Mexer, Domingos – Witi, Amade, Guima, Gildo – Domingues – Ratifo

Key Player: Clesio Bauque

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous four meetings, Mozambique have managed just a win, while Cape Verde have won twice and a game ending in a tie. Cape Verde's (1-2) victory against Ghana was a team effort, even though it could have finished in a share of the spoils. Cape Verde were more precise in their approach and were able to breach the Ghanaian defense multiple times. At the same time, Mozambique almost produced what could have been the most shocking result in the tournament. They became the only side to have breached the Pharoahs' defense twice since June 2022. Considering the quality of attacks in this fixture, we cannot but expect a free-flowing offensive game here. I anticipate an even contest with more than two goals here for 2.30.

Cape Verde have had a great run against Mozambique, and they’ll be the closeꦿst to securingꦜ the maximum points; bet on a home win or draw and over 1.5 goals for 1.93.

We expect to see at ♚least a goa at both ends for 2.25.

Good luck!
