Sierra Leone vs Guinea Bissau Prediction: The visitors will extend their solid defensive play

Sierra Leone will play Guinea Bissau in round five of the World Championship Qualification at Samuel Kanyon Doe Sports Complex. The two teams are coming off a poor run of performances. How will this game unfold? I will give a full game preview below and offer the best betting options.

Sierra Leone

Sierra Leone played Zambia in the Africa Cup of Nations last November and lost. In a 0-2 contest, second-half goals from Emmanuel Banda and Kennedy Musonda were enough to see their opponent take maximum points. In the meantime, Sierra Leone have failed to win any of their recent matches, losing to Liberia and drawing with Chad and Liberia. However, Sierra Leone's last game in the World Cup qualifier was against Burkina Faso, and they settled for a 2-2 draw. Ahead of this game, Sierra Leone have five points from four matches, scoring four goals and conceding five.

Guinea-Bissau

Guinea Bissau are coming off a 1-2 defeat at the hands of Guinea in the African Nations Championship and hopes for a better result here. In a 1-2 contest, Demba Balde's strike put this side in the lead, but a second-half brace from Mohamed Bangoura was enough to see their opponent overturn the game. In the meantime, Guinea Bissau head into this game with a poor run of seven matches, failing to win any. In that run, this team lost to Mozambique, Mali, and Guinea while drawing Mali and Eswatini. Ahead of this game, Guinea Bissau sit second in the Group A World Cup qualifying standings, scoring three goals and conceding two.
