Sudan VS Burkina Faso

This match is the group stage of the 2026 Africa Cup of Nations and will be held on January 1, 2026, with Sudan playing at home against Burkina Faso. Based on the odds you offer, the agency is clearly bullish on the away team Burkina Faso to win.

Sudan has been in fluctuating form recently, with mediocre performances in Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers and friendlies, weak in attack and many defensive holes against stronger opponents. Burkina Faso's recent record has been more stable, showing strong competitiveness in the qualifiers, with a well-structured squad and several core players playing in the Europa League, and the overall strength and form are on the rise.

The two teams don't have many historical head-to-head records. Judging from the limited head-to-head situation, Burkina Faso has a certain advantage in the overall matchup, and its physical confrontation and tactical execution can often restrain the Sudanese team's style of play. In the most recent meeting, Burkina Faso emerged victorious.

The odds you offer are 6.50 for Sudan to win, 2.88 to draw and 1.80 to win Burkina Faso. The odds structure clearly reflects the market bias, with odds of 1.80 away wins at significantly low, indicating that Burkina Faso is seen as the favorite to win. A draw is priced at 2.88 to guard against it, while the high odds of a home win of 6.50 suggest that Sudan's upset chances are underestimated.

Based on the recent form, historical head-to-head records and odds data of both sides, Burkina Faso is better than Sudan in terms of paper strength, individual player ability and recent performance. Burkina Faso is expected to take control of the midfield initiative and use its forward speed and technical advantages to create scoring opportunities. Sudan is likely to adopt a defensive counter-attacking strategy, but given their lack of defensive consistency, it will be difficult to withstand the visitors' continued attacks. Therefore, the most likely outcome of this game is an away win for Burkina Faso.
