At the 2025 African Nations Championship (Chan), not much has gone in favor of Zambia and Angola. The two Southern African nations will go head-to-head on Sunday in Group A, hoping for a positive result. Let’s have a look at the preview and a prediction of this match.
The two nations are meeting for the fourth time in history but the first time since 2013. Heading into this match, Zambia will be targeting not just their first win in this group.
They have never beaten Angola before, and they will aim for that to get their Chan campaign rolling. They are coming from a 2-0 loss to two-time winners DR Congo. That stretched their winless run to four matches, three of them defeats.
The situation is also dire for Angola, who, two matches in, are still seeking a first win. After their opening loss to Morocco, Angola took on Kenya in their second match.
As fate would have it, though, they managed just a point after VAR ruled out what the Palancas Negras thought was a stoppage-time winner. The end result was a 1-1 draw, and the point picked places them above Zambia.
With two wins in three matches against Zambia, Angola will be confident going into this match. In their last seven outings, Angola suffered just one loss and won four.

Our Zambia vs Angola Prediction
Zambia will be the underdogs here. In this battle of teams from the Southern Africa region, Angola come up as the favorite, as they have never lost to Zambia in their three previous meetings.
Angola were denied a late winner through a VAR review in their last outing, but their performances in the opening matches have been worthy of a team that should be winning. They face a side on three losses in the last four matches, and we can bet Zambia will not be very confident. Our prediction for Zambia v Angola is that Angola wins the match.
