Match Preview
Cabo Verde continue to delight their fans with positive results at the Africa Cup of Nations: after a surprise 2-1 win over Ghana, the team easily beat Mozambique 3-0 in the second round to secure their place in the playoffs. In addition, before making a prediction on Cape Verde, you should pay attention to the fact that the team has a well-developed forward line: the Blue Sharks create several chances in every match, and 33-year-old Bebe scored a good goal against Mozambique.

The results of the opening two rounds are hard to put down to Egypt: first, the Pharaohs avoided a sensational defeat against Mozambique with a 90+6 minute penalty shootout (2-2), and then a hard-fought draw against a tough opponent like Ghana (2-2). Despite such poor results, the team is in second place and has a good chance to qualify for the playoffs. However, before making a prediction for Egypt, it should be noted that the national team is approaching the upcoming clash with a sub-optimal squad: African star Mohamed Salah suffered a serious injury against Ghana and will not be able to help his team in the near future.

Goaloo8 Prediction
Before making a prediction for Cape Verde vs Egypt, you should pay attention to the odds: sportsbooks consider the nominal guests as clear favorites for the upcoming clash, which we do not agree with at all. At this tournament, the "Pharaohs" play extremely unconvincing, have huge problems with the game in defense, with great efforts to get back in the score, and without the injured Mohamed Salah, Egypt will be completely "impotent" in attack. Cape Verde should look no worse than their opponents.
