Guinea and Togo lock horns at the Estadio Municipal da Bela Vista in Parchal, Portugal, on Friday (October 13) in a friendly.
Guinea are coming off three winless games, two of which came in the 2023 African Cup of Nations qualifiers. After winning three straight qualifiers, the National Elephants lost 2-1 to Egypt, followed by a 2-2 draw to Malawi on the last day.
That saw them cede top spot in Group D of the qualifiers to the Pharaohs, but they sealed their place in next year's showpiece relatively comfortably. Interspersed during that run was a 4-1 thrashing by giants Brazil in a friendly, but it was a lopsided affair on paper, to begin with.
Trending
After this month's double-header against Togo and Guinea-Bissau, Guinea begin their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers next month. Winning both games this month will give them some momentum.
Meanwhile, Togo are coming off three consecutive wins. Their most recent two clashes were in the AFCON qualifiers, where the Sparrowhawks beat Eswatini 2-0 and Cape Verde 3-2.
It's worth noting that the side are winless in four qualifiers, drawing and losing twice apiece. Togo's late surge, therefore, proved inadequate, as they finished in third place and failed to qualify for the finals.
