Sao Tome e Principe vs Equatorial Guinea Prediction
After six matches of Group H in CAF qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Sao Tome e Principe have collected zero points with an array of hammerings, scoring twice and conceding 14 goals in those games. Equatorial Guinea have shown improvement with CAF Africa Cup of Nations runs in the last half a decade or so, but they have managed just seven points from six games in this qualifying campaign.
That points tally leaves them nine points adrift of likely group winners Tunisia and even five off second place Namibia, as they chase a playoff spot. This match is being played at the neutral venue of Stade Municipal in Oujda in Morocco.
Sao Tome e Principe are a poor side and they have shown that, but 14 goals conceded in six games isn’t horrific so Equatorial Guinea’s victory may not be overly thrilling.
