Kenya opens the AFCON Qualifiers with a match against Eritrea. Harambee Stars put four past 10-man Lesotho in July. Now Kenya will face the Red Sea Camels, who are on back-to-back wins that helped them advance to this stage. Each side will likely play attack-focused football, and so our Kenya vs Eritrea match prediction is both teams to score.
Eritrea beat Eswatini 2-1 last time out, taking their aggregate score to 4-1 in the AFCON preliminary round. Now Eritrea will hope to get on the scoresheet against Harambee Stars, who were last in action when Kenya beat Lesotho 4-0 in international friendlies. The two games prior ended in a 1-1 draw and a 3-0 rout over Grenada.
One advantage Kenya enjoys is having more experience in this stage of the competition. In their past six AFCON Qualifiers, they are unbeaten in four, while having a tally of four goals. While their performance in recent AFCON qualifiers is modest, their experience could be a major advantage that could get them over the edge against the Red Sea Camels.
Kenya's recent form alongside their deeper experience makes them favourites to win. However, numbers show that the Red Sea Camels can score goals. Although a draw for Eritrea will be difficult, we expect the match to end with both teams getting on the score sheet.

Our Kenya vs Eritrea Prediction
Kenya, fresh off a 4-0 rout over Lesotho, will be delighted to face the barely experienced Eritrea. After losing only two games in their last six AFCON Qualifier games, Kenya will be confident they can overrun Eritrea. With eight goals scored in their last three international outings, Harambee Stars are clear favourites to win.
However, the Red Sea Camels have shown a viable attacking threat in their last two games. With Kenya quite shaky at the back, we expect Eritrea to also get on the score sheet. Hence, our Kenya vs Eritrea prediction is BTTS.
