After their opening-day defeat, South Africa could be on their way packing if they fail to win against Namibia at the Amadou Gon Coulibaly Stadium on Sunday. The Bafana Bafana will be keen for a better outing after their disappointing opening-day display. Meanwhile, Namibia will be satisfied with a draw, but South Africa will be aiming for nothing less than three points. I'm confident that we'll see a strong performance from South Africa and a well-deserved win in this crucial match.

The Bafana Bafana of South Africa began their campaign with a (2-0) defeat against Mali. South Africa were presented with an opportunity to take the lead, but Percy Tau missed from the spot. Unfortunately, Mali found their way into the game as they scored twice after the break.
The one time Africa Cup of Nations head here for the eleventh time with the aim of triumphing this time after failing to qualify for the 2022 edition. The Bafana Bafana of South Africa wrapped up the qualifying round in second place, finishing behind Morocco with seven points from a possible twelve. South Africa have managed one win over their previous six games, but a win here could be their turning point.
South Africa Likely Lineup: Williams; Modiba, Xulu, Sibisi, Mudau; Sithole, Mokoena; Lepasa, Zwane, Tau; Mayambela
Key Player: Percy Tau
Namibia
FIFA Ranking: 115th
The Brave Warriors pulled one of the greatest surprises of the first round when they defeated Tunisia in their opening game. Namibia withstood the opposition's pressure and were more effective in front of goals. They finally got their goal through Deon Hotto, who could’ve doubled the lead minutes after.
Namibia have bettered their last appearance in this competition with their victory over a solid Tunisia side. Namibia qualified for this edition following their second-place finish in Group C. They picked up five points from a combined twelve, scoring six while conceding six.
Namibia will hope to finish strong in this competition but will likely play defensively here to widen their chances of making it to the knockout stages.
Namibia Likely Starting Eleven: Kazapua; Kamberipa, Ananias, Elago, Amutenya, Haoseb; Shitembi, Tjiueza, Kasume; Kambindu, Peter Shalulile
Key Player: Peter Shalulile
Expert Betting Tips
Over their seven previous meetings, South Africa have won three and drawn four against Namibia. The Bafana Bafana had a great start to their game against Mali, but since they missed the penalty, the tempo of the match reduced. On the other hand, Namibia were very precise in their game play against Tunisia; we expect a repeat of that here.
Without a doubt, both teams are extremely familiar with each other as most of the players on the pitch play in the South African League. This familiarity is bound to lead to an open and thrilling encounter. Peter Shalulile, in particular, should be feeling confident about leading the line against his former teammates and inspiring his side to a back-to-back victory. Nevertheless, South Africa won't be sitting back in this encounter, as they'll be desperately seeking maximum points. In my opinion, it's highly likely that both sides will get on the scoresheet here for 2.12.
This game will produce more than a goal for 2.38.
We think both teams will be pleased with a point apiece for 3.18.
Good luck!
