Ethiopia vs Cape Verde Isl. Prediction & Betting Tips - AFCON
by Daniel Ngulu | in AFCON Prediction
Cape Verde and Ethiopia are regarded as the Group A minnows as action gets underway at the 2021 AFCON in Cameroon. Ethiopia, former champions of Africa are fallen giants and go to this competition as one of the lowest ranked nations. They took on Sudan in their only friendly match ahead of the competition and won 3-2. That is their only win in the last five matches and they have no clean sheet in this run, while they’ve failed to score in one of the five matches. Twice in the last five matches, Ethiopia have conceded two or more goals, and two of their last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals.
Cape Verde, on the other hand, haven’t played a friendly match ahead of this competition, and go to their opening game unbeaten in their last four matches. Their last game of 2021 was against Nigeria, when they held the African giants to a 1-1 draw away in Nigeria. Cape Verde have three wins in the last four matches and perhaps an area they’ll need to put more effort in, is the defence, having managed just one clean sheet in five. They’ve managed to score in each of their last five matches and in two of the five they’ve scored twice.

Our Ethiopia vs Cape Verde Isl. Prediction
Cape Verde are a very solid side and they have the better run of these two. Their only loss in the last five matches was against Nigeria and they are impressive in attack. Ethiopia are unbeaten in the last three but have really struggled. A win for Cape Verde is more likely here.
