South Africa vs Namibia Prediction: Bafana Bafana will maintain their great run

On Saturday, Bafana Bafana of South Africa will lock horns with Namibia at the Orlando Stadium. The Brave Warriors will strive for their first three points against South Africa over their previous six meetings. Namibia will be without their player of the year and highest goalscorer, Peter Shalulile, who has been injured since last month.

FIFA Ranking: 63rd

The Bafana Bafana of South Africa are unbeaten over their last seven matches and head here following a commanding (2-1) defeat over Morocco. South Africa's victory over the Atlas Lions secured them the top spot on the log but could drop down if Morocco defeats Liberia tomorrow.

South Africa's last four friendlies ended in three victories and a share of the spoils. The Bafana Bafana have won five and drawn twice in their last seven matches, scoring in all the games.

Hugo Broos' men have invited an experienced side for this engagement, and we expect them to win comfortably here.

Namibia

FIFA Ranking: 114th

Last five games: LDDWL

The Brave Warriors' hopes of qualifying for next year's AFCON Tournament hang in the air even though they occupy the top spot on the table. Namibia, who have drawn twice, once once, and lost a game in the qualifying round, will hope Cameroon defeat Burundi in the final group game.

Namibia's last international friendly was a share of the spoils against South Africa in 2020. Namibia will be without Peter Shalulile, who has been their most influential player in this tournament, which might influence their performance here.

Expert Betting Tips

South Africa won three and drew three over their previous six meetings with Namibia. The Bafana Bafana have been remarkable over their last seven matches, scoring fourteen while conceding six. Coach Hugo Broos isn’t afraid of conceding or going behind in a game, as they have conceded in their last five games. On the other hand, Namibia head into this encounter on the back of a (3-2) defeat against Burundi. And we have a feeling they won’t be able to contain the attack of Percy Tau, Lepasa, and Foster. We expect South Africa to win and score more than once here for 2.01.

Namibia will have to approach this encounter without their best player, and we are not sure they’ll get a goal here; bet on BTTS no for 1.71.

South Africa might even get a halftime victory here for 2.13.

Good luck!
