Somalia vs Guinea Prediction and Betting Tips | 5th September 2025 

Somalia and Guinea face off at the Mandela National Stadium in neutral Uganda on Friday for the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

With just one point from six games, the Ocean Stars are currently at the bottom of Group G. They cannot qualify for the World Cup directly given the disparity between them and leaders Algeria (15 points), with only four more games remaining. But the East African side can still reach the second round if they win every single fixture hereon.

Their only point so far has come courtesy of a 0-0 draw against Guinea. Somalia have also netted just three gals during this run - one each against Algeria, Mozambique and Botswana - while conceding 11.

Guinea haven't covered themselves in glory either, sitting just above Somalia on the table with seven points - trailing the top two by five points. But there's a silver lining for them: the National Elephants can get there if they stitch a ruthless winning run in their home stretch.

So far, Guinea have won only twice: a 2-1 opening day win over Uganda and a shocking victory with the same scoreline against African giants Algeria on matchday three.
