Angola’s title defence at the COSAFA Cup is progressing well as they lead Group B with four points. They’ll be targeting a win in their final group match, against bottom-placed Malawi, to progress to the playoffs. Below is our prediction.
Angola, who won the title last year following a 5-0 win over Namibia, are responsible for the biggest win so far this year. They are coming from a 4-0 win over Lesotho.
Their all-time COSAFA Cup lead scorer, Depu, checked in with a hat trick, taking his tally to four goals this season. This win marked Angola’s eighth unbeaten COSAFA Cup game; they’ve won six of them.
Malawi can afford to look at their past meetings with Angola with some optimism. They haven't lost to the COSAFA Cup champions in the last three meetings. However, the last two ended in draws, and the latest of them was in 2018.
With only the group winners progressing, it will take a monumental performance for Malawi, who are on just one point. Their journey at this competition is as good as over, coming into this game with a -1 goal difference.
Their tournament started off on a losing note, falling 1-0 to Lesotho before holding Namibia to a 0-0 draw. Heading into this game, they have only one win in the last six matches.

Our Malawi vs Angola Prediction
Malawi’s tournament is as good as over after failing to win any of their opening two matches. The draw with Namibia after their opening loss to Lesotho placed them on the early departures list. To advance, they must score five against the defending champions and then hope Namibia and Lesotho draw.
Angola are not just boasting the highest scoring returns here; they also hold a long unbeaten run in this competition. Our prediction for Angola v Malawi is for Angola to win and both teams to score.
