Seychelles vs Lesotho Betting Tips - Lesotho backed in AFCON qualifiers
In the upcoming AFCON preliminary round qualifier, Seychelles are in a difficult position having lost their last five matches without scoring. They conceded 28 goals in these encounters. Lesotho, on the other hand, has shown some resilience in recent outings, including a win against Zimbabwe and close contests with other teams. They come into this match as the favorites, despite their inconsistent form. The analysis leans towards an away win for Lesotho, who have a historical edge over Seychelles. Squad details for both teams are yet to be fully confirmed.
