Angola - Burkina Faso: Form Analysis
Angola had a much-improved showing in their Match Day 2 action, beating Mauritania 3-2 to go top of Group D. A draw here could be enough to secure a round of 16 ticket, but a win will be more desirable. By the sheer nature of how tight the group is, both nations will desire to win this. Angola haven't lost any of their last seven matches, but they have just a win in nine. Seven of their last nine matches have produced draws. They even started this competition with a draw, their game against Algeria ending 1-1. After failing to score in six of seven matches before AFCON, Angola will look at the last two matches with much positivity. Failing to keep clean sheets in both matches will however leave many questions their way. The last time these nations met, Angola won 2-1, in 2018. That was their second straight unbeaten outing against Burkina Faso. In four of their last six meetings, both teams managed to score.
Burkina Faso ended their last match disappointed after dropping points in stoppage time. They led twice against Algeria but just when they thought they had secured three points, the Algerians struck. The Stallions have all to do now, in their quest to finish top of this group. With four points in the bag, there is a likelihood a round of 16 place is guaranteed. However, they will desire to win and be sure. Burkinabe will hope to avoid their pitfalls in the last game, as they failed to wrap up the three points against Algeria. That should have been a third straight win for Burkina Faso. They have suffered just one loss in their last eight matches, a pre tournament friendly against Iran. One of the positives they carry here as well is their scoring run. In the last seven matches, Burkina Faso have scored two or more goals in four.

Angola & Burkina Faso Squad Analysis
Gelson Dala was undoubtedly the star in Angola’s last match, scoring a brace to see Angola win their first AFCON game in 10. With four shots in the game and three big chances created, Gelson will definitely be confident coming into this game. He also made two successful tackles and nine ball recoveries, and deserved all the accolades from the match. Angolan fans will be expecting more magical performances from Gelson. As for the starting team, with no injuries reported, Pedro Goncalves may send out the same team that beat Mauritania. Burkina Faso on their part, may be without talisman Bertrand Traore, who got injured in the last game. There’s however no official confirmation of the extent of his injury as yet. A player to watch in this game will be Burkina Faso goalkeeper Herve Koffi. The keeper was outstanding against Algeria and will want to be the reason Burkina sail past this group with ease.

Our Angola vs Burkina Faso Prediction
Burkina Faso haven't beaten Angola in their last two meetings, but Angola have just a win in their last five meetings. Two of their last four matches ended in draws, and Angola come here having drawn most of their recent matches. As Burkina Faso have failed to win most of their recent matches, we expect these nations to share spoils here. None of these teams has stood out as outright favorites heading into this encounter. Our prediction for Angola v Burkina Faso is for the game to produce a draw.
Angola vs Burkina Faso - Other Interesting Predictions
Both teams to score - No
Angola will not come into this game with a solid scoring run even though they managed to score in both matches at the 2023 AFCON. Their 1-1 draw with Algeria on Match Day 1 marked an end to a run of four matches without scoring, though all ended in draws. They might have scored three against Mauritania but putting the strength of their opponent in consideration is also key here. Burkina Faso have proven to be among the solid sides at the 2023 AFCON and Angola will find it tough breaking them down. The Stallions are also good in attack, scoring in all their last seven games. At least one side has however failed to score in half of their last 10 games. Sticking with that, on the both teams to score market, we will not back both to score here.
