Mauritius Form

Mauritius pulled off an upset when they defeated Angola 1-0 Monday, moving into second place in Group C.

Mauritius had the perfect start, finding the back of the net after eight minutes of play, gaining the upper hand over their more fancied opponents.

Angola made multiple substitutions in the second half, but their finishing let them down, as Mauritius secured a famous victory.

They had 48% possession and three shots in the match, with two on target.

Mauritius have won four wins in their last ten fixtures, including six defeats.

Les Dodos' last five results across all competitions are won, lost, won, lost, and won, scoring six goals and conceding five.

Mauritius have to beat Mozambique convincingly, and Lesotho have to lose to finish top of Group C; however, they have only defeated their opponents once. Can they do it?

Mauritius Team News & Injuries

Coach Fidy Rasoanaivo will likely field the same starting XI that beat Angola on Monday.

Aurelien Francois scored the winning goal against Angola, registering his first in the Hollywoodbets Cosafa Cup.

Goalkeepers: Kevin Jean-Louis, Loic Michel, Jininio Darbon

Defenders: Jordan Francois, Damien Balisson, Walter Duprey St. Martin, Emmanuel Vincent, Francis Rasolofonirina

Midfielders: Hans Patate, David Aristide, Fernando Jackson, Pascal Colin, Kengy Saramandiff, Adrien Botlar, Wilson Mootoo, Fabrice Brasse, Yannick Astride, Stephan Nabab, Adel Langue, Aurelian Francois

Mozambique Form

Mozambique stumbled to a 1-0 loss against Lesotho, effectively ending their chance of progressing to the next round of the COSAFA Cup.

Mozambique had most of the ball in the first half, but Lesotho took the lead in the 43rd minute of the match, heading into the break with the advantage.

Mozambique pressed into the second half in search of the equaliser, but Lesotho held onto their lead to seal the victory.

They had 45% possession and three shots in the game, with three attempts on target.

Mozambique have secured two victories in their last ten matches, including five losses and three draws.

The Mambas' last five results across all competitions are lost, lost, drew, won, drew, and lost, scoring four goals and letting in four.

Mozambique have had a poor Hollywoodbets COSAFA Cup sitting on one point after two games. Even if they beat Mauritius, they are unlikely to progress to the next stage of the competition as the best runner-up.
