Sao Tome and Principe vs Tunisia Prediction & Betting Tips

Sao Tome and Principe vs Tunisia Preview

Sao Tome and Principe enter this game searching for their first win since March 2016. The hosts are the only nation yet to pick up a point in Group J, having lost all of their eight 2026 World Cup qualifiers so far. In their recent match against Namibia, a Peter Shalulile’s hattrick condemned them to a 3-0 defeat, as their goal difference increased to -16.

On home turf, Sao Tome and Principe lost their two World Cup qualifying matches so far, losing 1-0 to Liberia, and 3-2 to Equatorial Guinea. Their best result at home in recent memory is their 1-1 draw with Sudan in March 2024, in an African Cup of Nations preliminary game. Sao Tome and Principe sit bottom of the table with 0 points from eight matches.

Meanwhile, Tunisia will look to continue their unbeaten start to this World Cup qualifying campaign when they return to action this weekend. The visitors defeated Equatorial Guinea 1-0 in a keenly contested fixture, which they had to win in the dying minutes, all thanks to Mohamed Ali Ben Romdhane’s 90+4th minute effort.

Extending this four-game winning streak will be high on Tunisia’s list as they aim to finish this World Cup qualifying campaign in style. The North Africans are yet to concede a goal in this qualifying series and will ensure that it remain the same. Tunisia sit on top of the table with 22 points from 8 matches.

Sao Tome and Principe vs Tunisia Prediction

We back Tunisia to win because they are unbeaten in this qualifying campaign while the hosts are yet to win a football match since March 2016. In addition, the visitors have more depth, experience, and quality in their ranks compared to Sao Tome and Principe.

Both nations are not expected to get on the scoresheet because Tunisia are yet to concede in this qualifying campaign, while Sao Tome and Principe failed to score in five of their eight matches in the campaign as well.

Lastly, we do not expect over 3.5 goals because Sao Tome and Principe’s last five matches in this series averaged 2.8 goals per game while Tunisia’s eight matches in this World Cup qualifying campaign averaged 1.6 goals per match.
