Togo recently thrashed their opponents 5-1 in their latest match, while Burundi suffered a heavy 0-5 defeat in their previous outing. As a result, both teams enter this continental tournament clash in the Africa Cup of Nations Qualifications in contrasting spirits. The hosts are currently enjoying a 5-match unbeaten run and continue to produce solid attacking performances. On the other hand, although Burundi have had games where they completely lost their way, they also picked up impressive wins prior to that. In this match, they will need to be particularly disciplined on their travels. The match is likely to start cautiously with the visitors focusing on sitting deep to shut down dangerous spaces. The crucial factor to watch from the start is how well Burundi can cope with the hosts' opening wave of pressure and how long they can sustain their defensive resilience.
