Equatorial Guinea, preparing for the Africa Cup of Nations, faces Sudan, with crucial data and tactical deployments to consider. Historical encounters show Sudan's past struggles against Equatorial Guinea, including a 4-1 defeat in March 2019, with Sudan's corner count significantly lower. In a September 2018 match, Equatorial Guinea secured a 1-0 home victory against South Sudan, with Sudan's corner count again considerably lower. This indicates Equatorial Guinea's ability to tactically overcome mid-table teams, often achieving narrow away wins by solidifying their defense. However, there's room for improvement in their attacking performance. Recent matches reveal steady support from the wings, but the creativity and cooperation of key forward players are not yet at the level of top-tier clubs. Sudan's dominance in domestic matches, with possession often exceeding half the game, showcases their strong control and ability to create high-quality scoring opportunities, posing a defensive challenge for Equatorial Guinea at home. Considering the recent corner data favoring the away team, Equatorial Guinea must enhance their crossing threat and prepare for clearing aerial balls in their own area. From a pre-match tactical perspective, balancing attack and defense will be critical, especially in countering high-intensity pressing and refining their counter-attack speed.
