Raoul Savoy's men's four-game unbeaten run ended with a disappointing defeat against Ghana. Cen♊tral African Republic, who went toe to toe with the Ghanaian team, were denied points in a seven-goal thriller on the road. Before then, they had won against Chad, Papua New Guinea, and Bhutan. All these victories were actually against a lowly-ranked country. However, they have performed well and played like a team in recent games. 

Central African R😼epublic are the second lowe༒st-rated side in this group, and they’ll be out to prove themselves against the likes of Morocco and Gabon.

The Crocodileꦍs haven't qualified for the AFCON and World Cup in their history. They head into this game at the back of two defeats in seven games unbeaten.

Expert Betting Tips

The Central African Republic have been up and running lately, losing just once in five games. Following their decent performance against Ghana, they’ll be keen to maintain such momentum when they face off against their opponent. On the opposing end, Lesotho have not been bad lately as they have stood their ground against top sides in the ongoing FIFA World Cup campaign. Lesotho have drawn both Benin and Nigeria while defeating Zimbabwe away from home. 

We think both teams stand an equal chance here, and we believ👍e a share of the spoils might surface.

Since this game will be played in Morocco, we think both teams will li🅠kely get a goal apiece here.

Considering their decent performance against Ghana, the hosts are th𝓡e closest to securing the maximum points.

Good luck!
