Burkina Faso enters this Africa Cup of Nations match against Sudan as the clear favourite, and with good reason. Reviewing recent form, Burkina Faso's performance is demonstrably stronger. Their recent results show a more consistent attacking output and a tighter defence, especially noticeable in their international friendlies and WCPAF matches where they've secured multiple wins. Conversely, Sudan's form has been less convincing, suffering losses against teams like Bahrain and Iraq, and struggling to score goals. The match odds reflect this assessment, with a significant disparity favouring Burkina Faso. The Asian Handicap also suggests a likely victory for the away side, factoring in their superior recent form and higher goal-scoring potential. Considering the potential for Burkina Faso to control possession and their demonstrated ability to convert chances, a win for them appears the most probable outcome. Given the data, a conservative prediction for the over/under goals market is also prudent. Considering Sudan's struggles in front of goal and Burkina Faso's preference to control matches without necessarily scoring in abundance, the under market appears a more realistic bet. Therefore, the analysis suggests a Burkina Faso win with fewer goals scored overall.
