South Africa have won 3 of their last 4 matches to nil.
Tanzania have lost their last 4 matches.
Tanzania have lost their last 4 matches to nil.

Head to Head

In three matches, each side has won once with the other ending in a 1-1 draw.

South Africa Form

South Africa are in superb form as a national side with a superb set of results over the last 18 months. While they do often struggle to win games, losing does not happen very often.

With just one defeat in their last 25 games, Bafana Bafana are building a very good squad and confidence. It is true that they lost in the COSAFA Cup just a couple of days ago, but we aren’t counting that as it is a different squad to what is playing in these friendlies.

The strongest squad is playing Tanzania while a second-string side is featuring back home in the COSAFA Cup.

Hugo Broos has a relatively strong squad available, however, players from PSL champions, Mamelodi Sundowns have been rested.

Tanzania Form

Tanzania are not in the best form coming into this game but will hope to turn things around ahead of more important games later this year.

Tanzania have lost their last four matches against Morocco, Burkina Faso, Kenya and Zanzibar. They also failed to score in any of those four fixtures and conceded two against all opposition besides Zanzibar who won 1-0.

Tanzania News

We should see a strong side from Tanzania given their need to build some confidence.

Verdict

South Africa v Tanzania

Bafana Bafana are tipped to win to nil with a 2-0 scoreline.
