Comoros vs Zambia Prediction and Betting Tips | 2nd July 2024

Comoros and Zambia lock horns in the 2024 COSAFA Cup on Tuesday at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Gqeberha, South Africa for their encounter in Group B.

Ranked 119th in the world, Comoros are currently second in the table with three points from two games following their 2-0 defeat of Kenya on matchday two.

Affane Djambae opened the scoring for Les Coelacantes from the penalty spot in the 34th minute, before doubling their advantage from open play, just four minutes into the second half.

By contrast, the island side began their campaign with a 1-0 defeat of Zimbabwe, who currently lead the group with six points, having won both their group-stage fixtures.

The group winners are assured of a place in the knockout stages while the runners-up could get into the semi-finals based on their overall ranking with other second-placed teams.

Zambia still have a slim chance of reaching the next round. The Copper Bullets are currently at the bottom of Group B without a point from two games, having lost both their games 2-0, first to Kenya and then to Zimbabwe.

A victory over Comoros in their final group fixture is imperative to keeping their progression hopes alive, or else it's game over for the southern African side.
