  • Bet on South Africa to win 1-0 7.20 at Betfred
  • Bet on South Africa to keep a clean sheet – 5.40 at Betway

Bet on South Africa to Win

Both teams have been surprise packages in the current Afcon. Not many people expected either of them to reach the semi-finals of the event. However, South Africa will be slightly more motivated. The 1996 Afcon Champions have struggled to make an impact in the tournament in recent years. They will be hungry to end the tournament by giving their fans something to smile about. It should be a low-scoring game but we expect South Africa to win narrowly. 

Bet on South Africa to Win 1-0

This is South Africa’s best Afcon performance in 24-years. The last time that they reached the semi-finals of the event was in 2000 when they finished third. There is pressure on Percy Tau and we back the Al Ahly attacker to break his Afcon duck in this game and score a goal. Despite being South Africa’s best attacker, Tau has failed to find the back of the net in the current Afcon campaign. 

Bet on South Africa to Keep a Clean Sheet

Bafana Bafana goalkeeper Ronwen WIlliams has been one of the best goalkeepers in the tournament so far. He famously saved four penalties in South Africa’s penalty shootout win against Cape Verde in the quarter-finals. We expect Williams to once again be in good form in this game and he will frustrate the DR Congo attackers.
