Zambia vs Burundi Prediction
Zambia come into this one on the back of a comfortable 2-0 defeat of Togo in their most recent outing, last week. That came after they had succumbed to a 3-1 defeat against Algeria to kick off their qualifying campaign, extending their winless run of form to nine matches.
Burundi have been one of the more entertaining and front foot teams in Africa and that showed in their 8-0 aggregate victory over Chad in the preliminary round of AFCON qualifying back in March. They were beaten 1-0 by Togo before a creditable 2-2 draw with Algeria last month.
Zambia have to remain the favourites for this one but Burundi are a proactive outfit and may well fancy themselves to bloody the nose of their opposition.
