The Cape Verdean national team enters the match after an exciting draw in the last round against Uruguay 2-2, in a match in which it showed its ability to recover the result and come away with a valuable point that strengthened its chances in the group.
On the other hand, the Saudi national team enters the confrontation after a heavy loss to Spain 4-0, which requires a strong reaction in order to revive its hopes of competing during the group stage.
The Saudi team between victory and accounts
The Saudi national team enters the final round with one point and a goal difference of -4, which makes it in urgent need of achieving a victory over Cape Verde in order to revive its hopes of competing for the qualification ticket.
Although victory is a basic condition, this may not be sufficient alone, as “Green” is also required to achieve a victory with a comfortable margin that will help it improve its position in the ranking of the best of the three. His chances also remain tied to the results of the rest of the competing teams, which forces him to wait for possible setbacks to ensure passage to the next round.
Note that the victory of the Saudi Green with any result over Cape Verde, along with the loss or draw of Uruguay from Spain, officially qualifies it to the next round in second place.
