Congo has lost both matches in the group has no chances to advance to the playoffs. The team conceded 2 goals from the Egyptians and Uganda and failed to score a consolation goal in any of those matches.
What should we expect from the upcoming game where one team no longer needs anything, while the other still has theoretical chances of continuing the struggle? It is clear that we should wait for the victory of a more motivated opponent. It is unlikely that Egypt will allow itself to play for a draw in front of its public, which will include not the last political figures, and this is still Africa, not Europe, where such spectators add responsibility to home teams. And that means Zimbabwe's chances for progressing from the group are not so remote. But it needs to win at least with a difference of 2 goals. Since Uganda has a 3-1 goal difference, while the Warriors have 1-2. It is likely that Zimbabwe will succeed in it. Congo is depressed and has no motivation. Zimbabwe will work like a dog to try to go further in the tournament. The teams met 3 times. 2 draws and Zimbabwe’s win is the outcome of those meetings. If you believe all the logical conditions of the situation, then Zimbabwe should win in the upcoming game. And its squad is not weaker than the opponent’s one. All the same, there are about a dozen football players that either perform in Europe or performed there before.
Prediction for the match: Zimbabwe to win
