The battle continues in the "COSAFA Cup. Group stage. South Africa" championship. The game will take place at 07 June 2025 year.
Last time, in the head-to-head between the clubs, the home team celebrated success. By the way, this winning match was also played at home by South Africa.
In that match, the team South Africa showed confident attacking play, which allowed them to win with a good goal difference.
Recently, the teams have only played one head-to-head match, so conclusions about the chances of success should be based on the current form of the teams, not on the head-to-head statistics.
Let's try to understand and analyze which team is stronger.
South Africa: It is in first place in the standings out of 4. Coach Хуго Броос continues working with the team, which is in worthy form.
According to the statistics of recent matches, the club shows equally effective defense both at home and away. A bit about the previously played games:
The last time the club ЮАР played a home match against the team Конго. Excellent attack and great defense led to a decisive victory in this encounter.. Previously the team ЮАР played an away match against the club Южный Судан, it took place 8 месяцев назад. A stunning shootout with an abundance of goals undoubtedly delighted the fans. The winners, represented by this team, managed to score just one more goal. But that was enough for the victory.
Zimbabwe: Occupies third place in the standings out of 4. This team is coached by Brito, Baltemar. The team is in confident form.
Recently, the team has been showing a more organized defense away from home. Information about the previously played matches:
Last time the team Зимбабве played a home match against the club Эсватини, which took place 7 месяцев назад. Despite playing at home with the support of their fans, the team suffered a humiliating defeat with a three-goal difference. Previously the club Зимбабве played a home match against the team Намибия. The match was dominated by Зимбабве, with the opponents responding to 3 of their goals only with a consolation goal.
In the home match, the South African national team is facing a weak team. Considering South Africa's strong form and the support of the fans in the stadium, there is every reason to believe that the South African team will be able to secure a victory. Additionally, playing at home gives an advantage to the team, and it is important for the South African team to deliver a good result in front of their home crowd. The weak opponent team does not pose a threat to the South African team, so it is very likely that they will be able to win this match.
Prediction: Draw. Both teams have been struggling to score in their recent matches. South Africa hasn't scored in their last two games despite controlling possession. Zimbabwe also failed to score in their last two matches. The presence of fans for South Africa will add extra pressure, leading to a cautious approach. Therefore, both teams may prefer to play for a draw rather than risk a defeat.
