World · Africa Cup of Nations · Mon, 29 Dec 2025

Zimbabwe meet South Africa in the World, Africa Cup of Nations on 29 December 2025 at 17:00 (Africa/Lagos). The recorded score is 2–3.

On the 1X2 market the shortest price is South Africa at 1.67. Once the bookmaker margin is removed, that outcome carries about 56.6% of the implied chance, with the other two outcomes sharing the rest. A short price means the market rates that side more likely. It is not a certainty, and the margin means the three raw probabilities add up to more than 100% before they are scaled.

The 2.5-goal line is priced shorter on Under 2.5 (1.6, about 59% after the margin). Both teams to score is shorter on No at 1.57.
