South Africa vs South Sudan Prediction & Betting Tips - AFCON
by Devesh Jaganath in AFCON Predictions
The final match in what has been an entertaining Group K at the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers will see South Africa taking on South Sudan at the DHL Cape Town Stadium on Tuesday evening. Bafana Bafana lead the group heading into the last round of matches while the Bright Stars are at the foot of the standings. Check out our match prediction below.
South Africa punched their ticket to the 2025 AFCON tournament last week when they came away from Kampala with a 2-0 win over Uganda to move to pole position in the group. Meanwhile, South Sudan, who were already eliminated from qualifying, brought an end to Congo’s hopes of reaching the main draw by beating them 3-2 at home on Thursday.
Thus, regardless of the outcome here, Bafana Bafana and the Cranes will still progress - it’s just a matter of in what order. Let’s get into the key stats.

South Africa - South Sudan: Form Analysis
South Africa have enjoyed a very impressive qualifying campaign and capped it off with that win against then-group leaders Uganda on the road to maintain their unbeaten record.
Bafana Bafana have won three and drawn two of their matches in this competition, and have not tasted defeat since losing to Nigeria in the AFCON semi-final back in February (W6 D7 L0).
On home soil, the hosts have been very tough to overcome, unbeaten in their last 11 games, seven of which ended with them maintaining clean sheets.
South Africa are the second-highest-scoring team in this competition with 13 goals!
Meanwhile, after their late comeback victory over Congo, South Sudan are now unbeaten in their last three games across all competitions, having avoided defeat in the CHAN qualifiers at the start of the month.
However, the Bright Stars have found form a little too late, having lost their first four games in this competition, which saw them eliminated from qualifying back in October.
Despite their struggles to find results, the visitors have been decent in attack, scoring in each of their last four games in all competitions. They also netted twice against South Africa in the reverse fixture back in September.

South Africa & South Sudan Squad Analysis
With Themba Zwane and Lyle Foster not in the squad, Evidence Makgopa and Luke Le Roux started the last match leading the line. However, it was Thapelo Morena and Patrick Maswanganyi who came off the bench to score the goals.
Given that qualification is now secure, Hugo Broos will likely look to make changes which could see Morena and Maswanganyi promoted to the starting lineup, along with the likes of Iqraam Rayners and Thalente Mbatha.
Elias Mokwana is flagged as a minor injury doubt for South Africa this week!
Ebon Malish Ezibon became the first player to score two goals for South Sudan in this season's qualifiers with a brace against Congo, and he should keep his spot in attack.
Data Elly Lokosang became the sixth goalscorer for the Bright Stars in qualifying and will likely be given a start in this match, potentially at the expense of midfielder William Gama.

Our South Africa vs South Sudan Prediction
South Africa were one of the best defensive teams at the previous AFCON, but since then, they have made major improvements in attack and are currently the second-highest-scoring team in these qualifiers.
South Sudan have been decent in attack in this competition, but they do have a tendency to leak goals as we saw last week, and we feel they will struggle to contain their hosts in this one. Our South Africa vs South Sudan prediction: South Africa Over 1.5!
South Africa vs South Sudan - Other Interesting Predictions
