Kenya meets Tanzania in round 2 of the Africa Cup of Nations. The match will be played on Thursday, June 27th at 30 June Stadium (Cairo)
The national team of Kenya, which took 2nd place in its qualifying group, has played 6 times in its history at the final stage of the ACN. Before the tournament, the team held 2 friendly matches, beating Madagascar and tying with Congo. But the tournament itself began with a predictable defeat against Algeria (2-0). The loss could have been larger, but Algeria was merciful and did not smash the opponent.

Tanzania started in the tournament with a similar result. The same 2-0 defeat to Senegal in round 1 of the championship. The same hopelessness in the game, absence of attempts in the attack, and only bad luck of Senegal allowed Tanzanians to avoid hammering loss.
Kenya and Tanzania may progress from the group only from the 3rd place, and then if the fixtures allow them to squeeze into the top four among all the teams, which took 3rd places in their groups. Senegal and Algeria won’t allow them to advance directly. In order to have chances for the playoffs, both Kenya and Tanzania have to win a head-to-head match. It is difficult to predict who will succeed in it. But we surely cannot count on a scoring game. Both teams are focused primarily on the attentive game in defense and occasional counterattacks. That’s why they have not high scoring fixtures in their games. Kenya played with less than 3 goals in 8 of its 10 last matches; Tanzania - 7 of 10. In the last 5 head-to-head matches, the opponents did not score more than 2 goals. And 4 of them didn’t delight us with more than one. The upcoming game will be very cautious because the loser will be almost deprived of chances to advance to the next round.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
