The last time Burkina Faso and Cape Verde met was a year ago in Praia and on that day, Burkina Faso broke their hoodoo against Cape Verde with a 2 – 0 away win; it was the first ever win for Burkinabe in this fixture and when the two sides meet up on Tuesday 14th November, they will be hoping to seal a double, even though that will count for nothing, as the sole World Cup slot in Group D has been taken by Senegal. It was an open group, at least until Friday and now all these two can play for is a second placed finish. Burkina Faso head to the game hoping for a first win in four attempts; they are winless in their last three, only managing a loss, three draws and a win in their last five outings and when playing at home, they have registered three draws and two wins in their last five matches, scoring 11 goals and conceding nine. Burkina Faso have registered just three wins in their last 10 matches and have one loss in 14 home matches. In their last 18 World Cup qualifying matches at home, Burkina Faso have lost three. Cape Verde on their side, have three wins and two losses in their last five matches. Playing away from home, they have the same run – three wins and two losses, scoring six and conceding as many. In their last 14 matches, they have managed seven wins and seven losses and in their last 10 away matches, Cape Verde have picked four losses. In World Cup qualifying matches, away from home, Cape Verde have lost 11 of their last 16 outings. Head to head, the two nations have met five times, Burkina Faso have one win and Cape Verde four.
