Burkina Faso – Ethiopia : Preview & Prediction
Before the last day of this group stage of CAN 2022, Burkina Faso is on track to join the 8th finals. Despite a defeat in the opening match against Cameroon (2-1), Kamou Malo’s men were able to revive against Cape Verde (1-0). And they seem to have beaten their main competitor in the race for second place. From now on, to consolidate their second position, the Burkinabé players will have to do at least as well, on their third day, as Cape Verde, who are challenging Cameroon. For its part, Burkina Faso will have to face Ethiopia. And not to depend on the result of the other meeting, Edmond Tapsoba’s teammates will do everything to sign a second victory in this last meeting of the group stage.
And difficult not to be optimistic for Burkina Faso. Ethiopia is far from playing the leading roles in this group A. It first suffered a defeat against Cape Verde (1-0), before suffering a heavy setback against Cameroon (4-1). Despite a good first period, the Ethiopian selection was completely overtaken by the host country after the break. Once again, the deal does not look simple against Burkina Faso. Having long jostled the leader of this group A during the first day, he will aim for nothing but success in this meeting. When we know that the Burkinabés also made Algeria tremble during the qualifications for the 2022 World Cup, we say to ourselves that they can clearly play the spoilsports during the final phase. So they will be full of confidence against Ethiopia!
