Zambia and Guinea will trade tackles in an international friendly fixture on Tuesday.

The Chipolopolo come into the game on the back of a 2-1 defeat to Benin in another friendly on Sunday morning.

Kelvin Kampamba put them ahead in the 23rd minute, while Cebio Soukou equalized for Benin 10 minutes before the break. Tosin Aiyegun stepped off the bench to complete the turnaround in the 83rd minute.

Guinea were impressive in a goalless draw against South Africa at the Guldensporen Stadion in Belgium on Friday.

Zambia vs Guinea Prediction

The two sides are fairly evenly matched and they each come into the game in virtually identical form.

However, Guinea have been more consistent over the last two years and also have more proven players at the highest levels. We are backing the Syli National to secure a narrow victory in addition to a clean sheet.

Prediction: Zambia 0-1 Guinea
