Sudan vs Madagascar Prediction: Both teams are expected to be well prepared

The match between Sudan and Madagascar, which will take place at the Olympic Stadium on Monday, is important because the winner will advance to the knockout stage of the 2023 African Nations Championship. The teams are currently separated by only three points heading into their final appearance in the group stage in Oran, which is shaping up to be a competition that will keep fans on the edge of their seats.

In their last match against Ghana, Al-Gozoli Nooh scored the first goal for Burhan Tia's team shortly past the half-hour mark. However, goals from Konadu Yiadom, Daniel Afriyie, and Seidu Suraj altered the tide of the match. As a direct consequence of this, the Secretary Birds have now been defeated in each of their three most recent matches, and in all competitions, they have not won in any of their last seven games. Following this, the challenge will come from an opponent with whom there is little to differentiate them, as both teams have emerged victorious from their previous two encounters with each other. Before a game that, given where they are in Group C right now, is suddenly a must-win, Sudan will be hoping to get back on track with all three points here so they don't have to leave early for the first time ever at this level.

Following up on where they left off the previous year, Madagascar emerged victorious in their first involvement of 2023 thanks to a close 2-1 victory over Ghana on Sunday. After taking the lead with goals from Koloina Razafidranaivo and Tsiry Randriantsiferana, the team coached by Romuald Rakotondrabe was able to coast to victory until Augustine Agyapong scored a goal to cut the deficit in half about halfway through the second half. n That was the Barea's fifth victory in seven games played before or after the New Year, putting them atop their CHAN group on the strength of their head-to-head record alone. Despite the fact that they only need one point to advance to the next round of this year's African Nations Championship, Madagascar will be confident in their ability to walk away with all three victories, given their recent improvement in performance.

Madagascar is currently enjoying a more successful run of results as they head into this match, and they will enter it feeling sure that they can achieve their goal. We anticipate that Sudan will put up a good fight, but we think that Sudan's East African competitors will prevail in the end.
