Tunisia vs Namibia Prediction & Match Preview

Tunisia start their 2024 CAF Africa Cup of Nations campaign with the clash against Group E underdogs Namibia on Tuesday afternoon at Stade Amadou Gon Coulibaly in Corhogo.

They will go into the tie on the back of three wins and a draw in the last four games across competitions.

The run includes a 2-0 victory over Cabo Verde in the final test played last Wednesday. Tunisia also picked up two clean-sheet wins over Sao Tome e Principe and Malawi at the beginning of their World Cup Qualifying process in November last year.

They may not have a star-studded roster like some of the main contenders at the tournament but the Eagles of Carthage will be a tough rival for any team in the competition.

We see the Tunisians as clear favorites here against Namibia who are still searching for their first-ever win at a major tournament.

They failed to qualify for the previous AFCON edition and they managed to secure the return on the big stage by claiming five points in four qualifying games against Cameroon and Burundi.

Namibia began their World Cup Qualification run with a loss at Equatorial Guinea (0-1 on the road) but they bounced back immediately, beating Sao Tome e Principe in the second round (2-0 on the road).

Latest Meetings

• This will be the first competitive head to head clash between Tunisia and Namibia.
• The two teams will also lock horns twice in the African World Cup Qualifications in June this year and October next year.
• Their previous lone encounter happened in 2007 when Tunisia celebrated a 2-0 victory in an exhibition.

Tunisia vs Namibia Prediction

Namibia held Ghana to a goalless draw in their final friendly before the start of the AFCON. Tunisia do not have as much firepower on display as they used to have in the past which is why we will opt for the Under 2.5 goals FT pick as the main betting option.

Braver tipsters can chase the 3.75 odds offered for a HT/FT Draw/Tunisia bet as we can still see the Eagles of Carthage nicking the second-half winner ahead of much tougher games in Group E.
