Guinea Bissau vs Sierra Leone Prediction: The two teams have nothing to lose in this match

At the Estadio Nacional 24 de Setembro on Monday, Guinea-Bissau will take the field against Sierra Leone with the goal of achieving a successful conclusion to their Africa Cup of Nations qualification campaign. The team under the direction of Baciro Cande is certain to place in the top two of Group A, but they still have the chance to impress the supporters cheering them on in Bissau during the sixth round of games in the division.

Guinea Bissau - can the home side pick another win

Both Guinea-Bissau's 1-0 victory over the weakest club in the section, Sao Tome and Principe, in the middle of June and Nigeria's late success over Sierra Leone imply that Cande's team will not be under any pressure going into Monday's matchup. In fact, if they triumph over the Leone Stars in round six and the Sao Tomeans defeat the Super Eagles, they still have a chance to take first place in the standings. Djurtus has a chance to win the group even if Jose Peseiro's team only manages a draw in Uyo on Sunday; however, in order for this to happen, Cande's squad will need to win by a large margin on Monday. Regardless of this, Guinea-Bissau's performance in the Estadio Nacional 24 de Setembro might be either extraordinary or unremarkable, depending on whether they know where they stand before the game.

Sierra Leone - visitors are not on an impressive level

The elimination of Sierra Leone from the upcoming main tournament in January was decided in June, as Kelechi Iheanacho scored the winning goal in the 93rd minute of Nigeria's 3-2 victory in their last match. If the Leone Stars had been able to complete their comeback from 2-0 down, they would have had a chance to force a nail-biting final round at 2-2. However, the goal scored by the striker for Leicester City sealed their destiny. As a result of having competed in the most recent finals in Cameroon, the side coached by John Keister will not be competing in the AFCON the following year; therefore, Monday's match will serve just as an opportunity to salvage some of their pride. Even though the Leone Stars could find confidence in securing their lone victory in qualifying while they are away from home, it is still unknown whether or not this will come to pass. Despite the fact that this victory was achieved against Sao Tome, Sierra Leone's battling qualities were on display against Nigeria, where they took the lead 1-0 before ultimately losing 2-1, demonstrating their capacity to compete away from home.

Guinea-Bissau possible starting lineup:

Mendes; Fernandes, Sangante, Ie, Mendy; Gomes, Bikel, Camara; Quizera, Dju, Mane

Sierra Leone possible starting lineup:

Sesay; Kakay, Turay, Samura, Samadiya; Michael, Kaba, Koroma, Kargbo; Williams, Fofanah

Expert Betting Tips

It is possible for Guinea-Bissau to win first place in Group A if they defeat Sierra Leone and Nigeria loses to Sao Tome and Principe. However, this outcome is extremely unlikely to occur, but there is nothing impossible in football, even though that might not be their goal at all. Sierra Leone, on the other hand, might put up a fight against Guinea-Bissau in the hopes of extending their undefeated streak, but the prevention of injuries would be their top goal. The odds are stacked in favor of Guinea-Bissau winning a match against Sierra Leone, and without doubt, I expect the better team to get a convincing win here.
