A dead-rubber clash in Group H of CAF 2026 World Cup Qualifiers will see bottom-placed Sao Tome and Principe take on fourth-placed Malawi on Monday. The Elephants will attempt to salvage some pride with a respectable finish to their disappointing qualifying campaign. Let's take you through our prediction for the match.
Sao Tome and Principe have been the whipping boys in Group H of CAF 2026 World Cup Qualifiers. Nine straight defeats have left them rooted to the bottom of the standings with zero points. This includes a heavy 6-0 loss to group leaders Tunisia in their last match.
Notably, Ricardo Monsanto's men have conceded in all nine of their 2026 World Cup Qualifiers while failing to find the net in seven. They also have drawn blanks in three of their four home fixtures in the competition.
Malawi played out a 2-2 draw against Liberia in their last 2026 World Cup Qualifier. Goals from Gabadinho Mhango and Junior Yeanaye helped the Flames come from two goals down to level the score.
This result marked their first draw in the group after three wins and four defeats, leaving them fourth in the standings with 10 points. Callisto Pasuwa's side have found the net in their last two matches and beat Sao Tome and Principe 3-1 in the reverse fixture.
