South Sudan vs Sudan Prediction
South Sudan have drawn their last four games on the bounce and will be looking to get back to winning ways in a high-stakes game.
Sudan have overcome political instability to emerge as one of the surprise packages in the World Cup qualifiers. They currently hold a two-point advantage at the summit ahead of heavyweights Senegal. Another victory here would further solidify their grip on top spot as they seek qualification for a maiden World Cup. James Kwesi Appiah's side will go all out for the victory.
More than three points are at stake when these two sides take to the field. There is a long political history between the two nations and neither team would want to lose the game. Sudan are the favorites and the more in-form side. We are backing the visitors to claim a narrow win in addition to a clean sheet.
Prediction: South Sudan 0-1 Sudan
