CAN vs SA Dream11 Prediction | Canada vs South Africa Men’s Hockey World Cup 2018 Preview

CAN vs SA Dream11 Team | Canada vs South Africa Men’s Hockey World Cup 2018

Match 9: 2nd December 2018 at 5:00 PM IST

Canada and South Africa would be desperate to get a favourable result in their favour after suffering defeats in their opening fixtures.

In their opening fixture, Canada conceded an early goal against Belgium but came back stronger to contain a top-side. However, it was not enough in the end as they could not outscore the opponent. Canada would be looking for a stronger performance here to stay in contention.

Despite the 2-1 loss to Belgium, Mark Pearson's late goal and stingy team defense gives Canada confidence and belief heading into the rest of World Cup! Read More: https://t.co/HkL0Wrgl7h #hwc2018 #fieldhockeycanada #teamcanada pic.twitter.com/WyU02mE59e

South Africa, on the other hand, come into the fixture after a horror show against India in their opening match. They were dismantled and kept conceding goals at regular intervals. They must forget Wednesday’s outing and start afresh to give themselves a chance.
