Eswatini vs Botswana Predictions and Tips

The date for the 4th encounter between Eswatini and Botswana is scheduled for Wednesday, 5th July 2023. Botswana won twice and settled for the spoils in previous meetings. Will they keep the unbeaten run against Eswatini going? Here is the best Eswatini vs Botswana predictions:

Team to Score First Prediction: Botswana to Score First

In our first Eswatini vs Botswana prediction, we have settled on the visitors scoring first. They won two and drew one of the previous three duels and have a better scoring run than Esatini in the last five matches across all competitions.

Team to Score Prediction: Both Teams to Score- No

With just one goal in the last five matches, Eswatini is expected to struggle in this game. A poor defensive run and a worrying scoring record are why we expect this to be a one-sided scoreline. So, on the team to score betting market, pick ‘No' as the highly probable outcome in this game.

Correct Score Prediction:  0-1 to Botswana

Based on the stats of past duels and recent matches, Botswana is the overwhelming favourite to get all the points in this game. We are, however, tipping a narrow victory of 0-1 in favour of Botswana. The visitors won two of the previous meetings with Eswatini with a clean sheet.

Eswatini

Eswatini has been terrible lately. They failed to score in the last four games and found the back of the net only once in their last five outings across all competitions. Within that period, Estini leaked 6 goals, keeping only one clean sheet. The poor scoring run and a worrying defensive record mean this will be another difficult game for the hosts.

Botswana

Botswana on the other hand suffered four defeats in their last five outings. Botswana won the last time out in a game that ended 1-0 over Libya. In the last five, the visitors recorded no clean sheet, leaked 7 goals and scored thrice in their last five matches across all competitions. With two wins and one draw from three past duels with Eswatini, the visitors come to this game as the favourites.
