Competition: African Nations Championship
market: Sudan no bet draw
Odds: 4/5 @ 1xBet
To finish the job and extend the adventure of qualifying for the African Nations Championship, Sudan will host Ethiopia on Wednesday afternoon.
Starting with the hosts, suffering an upset at the weekend as they claimed a crucial first-leg advantage, Sudan will simply want to finish the job here. They put in a proud display as they claimed a 2-0 victory away from home, with James Appiah’s side firmly in the driving seat on Wednesday afternoon. Signing off the November international break with a 0-0 draw at home to Angola, the former Ghana boss will be buoyed by his side’s recent success. The Reds have lost just one of their previous seven games in all competitions, including a 1–0 win over Tanzania on 27 October. Besides recording back-to-back clean sheets, it should also be highlighted that Sudan have come clean in five of their last seven outings. Likewise, it should also be highlighted that Sudan have recorded four consecutive clean sheets at the Khartoum Stadium.
For the visitors, after a toothless performance in the 2-0 defeat they suffered last weekend, Ethiopia have a real uphill battle on their hands here. Despite claiming a welcome 2-1 win over DR Congo last month, it looks like it could be a minor improvement for the Greens. Interim boss Mese Teferi has seen his beleaguered squad lose six of their previous seven appearances in all competitions, including another 2-0 defeat at home to Tanzania on 16 November. Wednesday’s visitors also have just one win on the board since the end of March, as they bounced back from a 0-0 stalemate against Tanzania on September 4. Likewise, it should also be noted that Ethiopia have registered their only win on foreign soil from any of their previous nine attempts. Chasing what is a real deficit and with their qualification dreams hanging by a thread, we’re backing the home draw with no midweek bets.
