Libya take on the visitors Equatorial Guinea in the round 6 match of Africa Cup of Nations qualification. The match will be played on Wednesday, September 6th at Martyrs of February Stadium (Benghazi).
Libya don't impress even at the continental level. The Mediterranean Knights have never qualified for the World Cup. There have been various reasons, including sanctions imposed on the country by the United Nations. But overall, this is just a very weak team. Yes, they did finish in second place in the African Cup of Nations, but that was back in 1982 when they hosted the tournament. Since then, they've made it to the AFCON twice, but in 2006 and 2012, they were eliminated after the group stage. Now, after starting with a victory against Botswana, the Libyans have lost all four of their matches.

Equatorial Guinea are also not among the serious contenders in Africa. They have never qualified for the World Cup. However, they have managed to achieve some success at the regional level. In 2012, they made their debut in the African Cup of Nations and reached the quarter-finals. Then, three years later, they finished in fourth place. Finally, in 2021, they returned and once again reached the quarter-finals. The qualification campaign for this tournament began with a painful 0-4 loss to Tunisia. However, they followed it up with four consecutive wins, securing an early berth in the continental competition.
There have been a total of 5 matches between these two teams, with Libya managing to win once. However, on four other occasions, including last year, Equatorial Guinea emerged victorious. In this pair the outcome seems clear, so there's no need to exert much effort. Let's go with total under 2.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
