Match Result: Sao Tome to Win

The first Sao Tome vs Sierra Leone prediction by footballgroundguide.com is a win for Sao Tome. When everyone thought Sao Tome was going to get nothing from their trip to Sierra Leone, they surprisingly bagged a point in a thrilling encounter that ended 2-2 in which they also opened the scoring on the 43rd minute. They had 6 shots on goal while Sirrala Leon has 8 shots on target in the reverse leg, a game in which  Sao Tome missed two big chances, one more than Sierra Leone.

Sao Tome's goalkeeper Gilmar Tavihno alongside Marcos Barbeiro and Aldair was hauled off with injuries, a result of which they let in the second goal in the 76th minute to settle for the spoils. Even with the challenges, Sao Tome proved hard to beat and with home support in this second leg, they are our pick to win the game.

Total Match Goals Prediction:  Over 2.5 Goals

Sao Tome vs Sierra Leone's prediction is on the total match goals market. We have settled on over 2.5 goals in this game. Both teams are shambolic defensively, so we expect plenty of goals in this game, just like was the case in the reverse leg that ended 2-2. Bet on the AFCON qualifier, round 4 clash-Sao Tome vs Sierra Leone- to end with at least 3 goals.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-1 to Sao Tome

Our last Sao Tome vs Sierra Leone prediction is on the correct score market. We are Sao Tome the hosts to win 2-1. With how these teams have performed, especially the visitors, it is hard to settle on the correct score market. However, we fancy Sao Tome to disapprove of Sierra Leone yet again with a new coach in charge following a 2-2 away result in the reverse encounter.

Sao Tome vs Sierra Leone Odds Preview

Sierra Leone

Sierra Leone still has a chance of redeeming their hopes of participating in the AFCON despite drawing 2-2 with Sao Tome e Principe in the 3rd round of the qualifiers. The visitors currently occupy the 3rd spot with 2 pts from 3 games. A win against Sao Tome could see them displace Guinea-Bissau from the second spit but that means they must score 4 or more goals.

Sao Tome and Principe

Sao Tome is the last team in Group A of AFCON qualifiers. They have 1 point so far after three rounds. A shambolic defence has been the biggest undoing for the hosts and it is unlikely that they will close the gap of a huge goal difference after shipping in 17 goals and scoring 3 in three rounds. However, with home support, we expect Sao Tome to score in this game, noting that they held Sierra Leone to a thrilling 2-2 draw away from home.
