Zimbabwe Lead with no Recent Clashes
Zimbabwe have won four of their nine matches against Angola. There were two draws and three Angola wins. However, these sides have not met since 2012.
Angola Struggling for Form
Angola failed to qualify for next year’s World Cup after drawing six of their 10 qualifiers. They topped their group for AFCON qualifying and reached the quarter-finals of the 2023 edition.
A 0-0 draw away vs Cameroon in October was a good result in their final World Cup qualifier. They’ve since played three friendlies, losing 2-0 at Argentina before beating Zambia 3-2 and Mozambique 4-1.
Their opening match at this tournament saw a 2-1 loss to South Africa. They allowed just 0.44 xG but Palancas Negras put up just 0.20 xG from open play as their goal came from a set-piece.
Two Wins in 18 for Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe’s last 18 matches have seen just two wins. They failed to qualify for next year’s World Cup and sacked coach Michael Nees on the eve of this tournament.
They lost 1-0 in successive World Cup qualifiers, to Benin and at home to Rwanda. In October’s qualifiers, they fought hard for a 0-0 draw in South Africa before losing 1-0 to Lesotho.
In November, the Warriors lost 3-1 to Algeria and beat Qatar 2-1 in two friendlies. Their AFCON opener ended with a very late 2-1 loss to Egypt as they allowed 35 shots and eight big chances.
