Uganda meets Zimbabwe in round 2 of the Africa Cup of Nations. The match will be played on Wednesday, June 26th at Cairo International Stadium (Cairo)
Having won the starting match with Congo, Uganda heads the group along with Egypt. Moreover, the team has a better goal difference and even outranks the championship hosts. Uganda would be completely satisfied with a draw in the upcoming match, which would practically guarantee progress from the group. Because the Egyptians will probably beat Congo in a parallel match.

Zimbabwe stood 40 minutes in the opening match of the tournament against Egypt but still allowed a goal before the half-time whistle. It could have conceded more, but the Egyptians, who delivered 16 shots on goal (9 of them were on target), simply had no luck and experienced problems with conversion. So, that goal left the only one.
I won’t risk calling the winner of the upcoming match. The teams are approximately equal in their level. Both have legionaries who play in European championships. Truth be told, they perform not in the strongest and not in the elite clubs. For example, Uganda has Kizito playing in Romania, Miya - in Croatia, and Sentamu - in Finland. There are performers playing in China, Iran, Canada... The Warriors have Kadewere representing French Le Havre, Musona from Belgian Lokeren, and Nakamba from Brugge. As you can see, both teams have no stars, but they are disciplined primarily in the defensive game. Uganda played 11 of its last 15 matches with less than 2.5 goals scored. And 8 cases ended with less than 1.5 goals at all. Zimbabwe also played 12 of its last 15 matches with less than three goals. The rivals met 4 times, and all 4 games were not scoring. In general, African championships are not distinguished by an abundance of goals. The upcoming match should not be an obvious exception.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
