Zimbabwe, following a 1-1 draw with Angola, still has a chance to compete for third place in their group. This hinges on a victory against South Africa. This match is a Southern African derby, promising to be highly competitive. Looking at team news, South Africa's midfielder, Mabasa, suffered an injury during the match against Egypt. Data analysis provides insights into this encounter. Zimbabwe has covered the Asian handicap in the first two group stage matches, enhancing their image. South Africa lost to Egypt and had a lack of effective attacks, relying on shots from outside the box. Historically, Zimbabwe has not had an advantage in previous meetings. South Africa is given a significant handicap, starting with a one-goal support and later reduced to 0.75 due to Zimbabwe's motivation, indicating caution. Zimbabwe is expected to be a popular pick in this match. I predict South Africa will at least win. Prediction: Away South Africa -0.75
