Togo vs Eswatini – Both teams had previously failed to qualify for the finals of the Cup of Nations, and they had done it in humiliating circumstances.
Togo was eliminated from Group G after failing to win a single match. In reality, with the exception of two draws, they had a flawless losing record. They had the most goals conceded and the fewest goals scored in the group. It’s also worth noting that they had only scored two goals at home all season.
Eswatini experienced a similar fate, as they were forced to settle for the bottom spot in Group I. With the exception of Guinea-Bissau, they had also gone winless throughout the competition and had allowed more than double the number of goals of any of the other teams in the group.
The two teams will be determined to qualify for the Cup of Nations at all costs this time, and will do all possible to start with a win.
Both appear to be evenly matched, with Eswatini having a somewhat superior recent record. However, they have recently been a complete disaster on the road, which has lowered faith in them. Both teams should score at least once on Friday, based on the current state of play. Togo’s most recent match ended in a 6-0 victory. The previous match had ended in a 2-1 victory for an Eswatini.
They haven’t had a clean sheet against this opponent yet. Three or more goals have been scored in every encounter between the two teams.
Togo vs Eswatini – Betting Analysis
Togo has won seven of their previous eight games overall, with their last home loss coming in September of 2021.
At the same time, Eswatini has only won three times on the road in the last six years, so this weekend will be a significant test for them. For these reasons, Togo is expected to win.
Still, their defence hasn’t been up to par lately, so expect the visitors to score at least once.
