Madagascar and Tanzania are presented a chance to kickstart their 2027 AFCON qualification campaigns after matchday one defeats. The two were always set to struggle in a Group L that has Nigeria and Guinea-Bissau. Three times in their five meetings, under 2.5 goals were recorded, and we are backing the same in this prediction.
Madagascar are coming from a tough outing, away in Nigeria, where they had their moment of fame before falling 2-1. It was a second straight outing against an African heavyweight, having earlier lost 4-0 to Morocco.
They will hope to have picked the lessons as they take on a more manageable job. This will be the third time they host Tanzania and will be hoping to keep their undefeated run at home.
Tanzania drew with Madagascar 1-1 the last time they visited the island nation, an improvement from their earlier 2-0 defeat. Coming into this game, they will seek further improvement after their 2-0 defeat to Guinea Bissau.
After Tanzania last faced Madagascar and won, back in August 2025, they’ve managed just one more win in 14 outings. That was against a lowly Macau, whom they thrashed 6-0.
That is also their only win in a run of three defeats in four matches. The Taifa Stars have particularly disappointed in attack, failing to score in three of their last four games.

Our Madagascar vs Tanzania Prediction
Both Madagascar and Tanzania had losing starts in the AFCON qualification campaign. Tanzania failed to score in their loss while Madagascar scored one goal, but both are carrying poor scoring returns here.
Each has won twice in their last two meetings, and an evened-out affair is expected here, though with their returns in attack, we will back another low-scoring outcome. In their two meetings hosted by Madagascar, only four goals were scored. Our prediction for Madagascar v Tanzania is for under 2.5 goals.
