Ghana Form 


Ghana did not have the results go their way in the two friendlies they played in March, losing 2-1 against Nigeria and drawing 2-2 against Uganda.

However, Ghana bounced back to form, defeating Mali 2-1 and the Central African Republic 4-3 in two World Cup qualifying fixtures in June. 

Ghana have secured two victories in the last five matches, including one loss and two draws. They scored 11 goals and let in ten at the back. 

The Black Stars have won four of their last five home fixtures, including one draw. They scored ten goals and conceded five.

Ghana are winning regularly on home soil and will start confidently against Angola in their opening Africa Cup of Nations qualifier, as they have never lost against their opponents in four previous meetings.

Angola Form 


Angola did not produce many fireworks during their two international friendlies in March, losing 1-0 against Morocco and drawing 0-0 against Comoros. 

Angola contested two FIFA World Cup qualifiers in June, defeating Eswatini 1-0 before drawing 1-1 against Cameroon. 

Angola won the 2024 COSAFA Cup in July; however, that team was comprised solely of under-23 players. 

Palancas Negras have registered one win in their last five fixtures, including two defeats and two draws. They scored two goals and conceded three.

Angola have won two of their last five away matches, including two losses and one draw. They scored five goals and let in two at the back. 

Angola must put in a clinical display against Ghana to get the result, as their opponents are in great touch at home; however, they have lacked goals lately.
