Ethiopia vs Tanzania Predictions


The form guide shows us two teams who are losing plenty of matches. I see the nations playing out a low-scoring draw. A second 0-0 stalemate in a row looks the best correct score bet.

  • Ethiopia have lost their last 3 AFCON matches.
  • Ethiopia have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 matches.
  • Tanzania have seen BTTS No in 7 of their last 8 matches.
  • Tanzania have lost their last 2 AFCON qualifiers.

Head to Head


Ethiopia hold a 2-0 advantage over Tanzania with two draws in four meetings.

The nations played out a 0-0 stalemate when they met in the reverse fixture in September.

Ethiopia Form


Ethiopia have just one win in 11 matches. They need to win both remaining qualifiers and hope for Guinea to lose both of their fixtures.

After two draws in World Cup qualifying, they drew 0-0 away to Tanzania to start AFCON qualifiers. A 2-0 home loss followed to Congo DR in a match which was goalless after an hour. 

Walyas lost twice to Guinea in the last international break. They were beaten 4-1 away and 3-0 at home.

Tanzania have four points and sit third in their AFCON qualifying group. A win here would give them a good chance of reaching the tournament.

They were beaten 1-0 away in Kinshasa and 2-0 at home in the return fixture. The second match was 0-0 after 86 minutes before two late strikes by the Congolese.
