Tunisia vs Namibia Prediction & Betting Tips (13 October)

Tunisia and Namibia are set to clash in a pivotal World Cup 2026 qualifier at Orlando Stadium, with both sides chasing top spot in Group H. Tunisia, under interim coach Montasser Louhichi, have been clinical in their campaign so far, boasting three wins from three and maintaining a perfect defensive record. The Carthage Eagles recently edged Equatorial Guinea 1-0, with Mohamed Ali Ben Romdhane converting from the spot, though their attack remains a concern with goals hard to come by. The absence of veteran winger Youssef Msakni and a possible knock to Aissa Laidouni could further test their depth.

Namibia, led by Collin Benjamin, have shown resilience despite a modest scoring record. Their 1-1 draw with Liberia kept them unbeaten in qualifying, though they’ve only netted twice in their last five outings. The Brave Warriors will miss star striker Peter Shalulile, placing the burden on midfielders like Tjipenandjambi Karuuombe, who scored against Liberia, to spark creativity. Their historic 1-0 win over Tunisia in the AFCON group stage earlier this year remains a psychological boost, but recent heavy defeats to South Africa and Angola have exposed defensive frailties.



Both squads head into the match with clean bills of health, giving their coaches full tactical flexibility. Tunisia’s lineup is expected to feature Bechir Ben Said in goal, with a backline anchored by Montassar Talbi and Yassine Meriah. Ellyes Skhiri returns to midfield, while Elias Achouri and Hamza Rafia will be tasked with breaking down Namibia’s defense. Namibia are likely to stick with their 4-2-3-1 setup, with Lloyd Kazapua in goal and Erastus Kulula leading the line. The midfield battle will be crucial, especially with Tunisia’s pressing style and Namibia’s counter-attacking tendencies.

While Namibia have proven they can surprise, Tunisia’s consistency and defensive discipline give them the edge. Expect a tightly contested affair with moments of brilliance from both sides, but Tunisia’s experience and tactical structure should see them through. Our prediction leans toward a 2-1 victory for Tunisia, a scoreline that reflects both their control and Namibia’s fighting spirit.

• Summary: Tunisia is going head to head with Namibia starting on 13 Oct 2025 at 13:00 UTC at Stade Hammadi Agrebi stadium, Rades city, Tunisia. The match is a part of the FIFA World Cup, Qualification CAF, Group H .
