Preview
South Africa and São Tomé and Príncipe face at FNB Stadium (Soccer City), in a match for this stage of the Africa Cup of Nations Qualification (Group Stage). These two teams have never met before, so this will be the first head‑to‑head between them. São Tomé and Príncipe registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis South Africa

After 1 win and 1 loss, the home team comes to this 3rd round in the 2nd position of Group C, with 3 points won. In the previous round, they won at home against Sudan by (1‑0), after they have lost in their first group stage by (2‑0) in an away match against Ghana. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 6 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses at their stadium. In the last 9 home matches South Africa has won 4, tied 3 and lost 2. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 4 of the last 9 matches have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 6 out of 9 have ended with Under 2,5 goals.

The South African national team have struggled to maintain good results and good performances. They are in a similar group, so losing points along the way is something that may be missed at the end of this phase. So the team know they need to react and show better performances on the pitch. Their attack has scored a few goals, but it suffers on the same scale. They will need to make some adjustments.

Analysis São Tomé

The away team comes to his 3rd round of Group C in the 4th position, no points won yet, after 2 losses. In their debut in this group stage they lost in an away match against Sudan by (4‑0). In the second round, they lost at home against Ghana by (0‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 1 win, 2 draws and 12 losses in away matches, with 11 goals scored and 46 conceded; against 6 wins and 9 losses at their stadium, with 11 goals scored and 21 conceded. In the last 3 away matches São Tomé and Príncipe has won 1 and lost 2. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 4 matches for this competition.

The team are currently the group's last-placed, scoring no goals and conceding five in their nets. The spot seems distant, but they still have games to seek the improbable. For that, it will take a lot of effort from the whole team to achieve a better balance between sectors within the field. Showing a safer defense and a more productive attack can be a good start.
