Malawi vs Mozambique Predictions


Malawi have been struggling of late. Mozambique got a good result in their first qualifier and get to play this match as a neutral venue instead of in Malawi. I am tipping a win for Mozambique.

  • Malawi have lost 8 of their last 13 matches (2 wins, 2 draws)(all competitions).
  • Malawi have lost 3 of their last 6 matches (World Cup qualifiers).
  • Mozambique have won 2 of their last 3 matches (1 drew) (World Cup qualifiers).
  • Mozambique have kept 3 clean sheets in a row (World Cup qualifiers).

Head to Head


Mozambique hold a 2-1 advantage over Malawi across their six previous meetings with three draws.

These sides met in the COSAFA Cup earlier this year as Mozambique won 2-0.

Malawi Form


After strong performance to win 1-0 in South Sudan and 1-0 against Uganda, Malawi qualified for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.

Malawi played in the 2021 COSAFA Cup in South Africa but drew two and lost two of their four matches. They drew 2-2 with Zimbabwe, lost 2-0 to Mozambique, drew 1-1 with Namibia and were beaten 2-1 by Senegal.

The Cranes began their World Cup qualification campaign with a 2-0 loss in Cameroon after conceding twice in the first 22 minutes.

Malawi Injuries & Team News


Goalkeepers: Brighton Munthali, Richard Chipuwa, Ernest Kakhobwe
Defenders: Stanley Sanudi, Peter Cholopi, Nickson Mwase, Limbikani Mzava, Dennis Chembezi, Charles Petro, Kieran Ngwenya, Gomezgani Chirwa
Midfielders: Chikoti Chirwa, Peter Banda, Chimwemwe Idana, Micium Mhone, John Banda, Yamikani Chester, Gerald Phiri Jnr, Tawonga Chimodzi, Mike Mkwate, Francisco Madinga
Forwards: Vincent Nyangulu, Richard Mbulu, Gabadinho Mhango, Khuda Muyaba

Coach Meck Mwase is expected to recall Orlando Pirates striker Gabadinho Mhango for this match having used a more defensive setup in Cameroon.

The coach has omitted midfielders Rafiq Namwera and Vitumbiko Kumwenda from the squad. Winger Yamikani Chester returned after injury and played the full 90 minutes in the last match.

Mozambique Form


Mozambique have a poor 2021 AFCON qualification campaign as they lost four of their six matches. They finished bottom of their group.

Os Mambas competed in the 2021 COSAFA Cup and finished four after losing 3-0 to South Africa in the semi-finals. They drew 1-1 against Eswatini in the third place playoff but lost on penalties.

Mozambique began their 2022 Qatar World Cup qualifiers with a very credible 0-0 draw against Ivory Coast.

Mozambique Injuries & Team News


Goalkeepers: Ernan Siluane, Victor Guambe, Cesar Machava.
Defenders: Norberto Marcelino, Francisco Simbine, Zainadine, Martinho Thauzene, Feliciano Jones, Agenor da Conceição Chande, Ocozias Nhaca, Fidel de Sousa, Bruno Langa, Reinildo Mandava

Forwards: Amancio Canhembe, Witness Quembo, Melque Alexandre, Luís Miquissone, Malico Rooms, Victor Junior, Estevão Novela.

Coach Horácio Gonçalves has a largely domestic-based squad. Winger Luís Miquissone is the key player and was recently signed by Al Ahly from Simba SC.

Midfielder Nilton Ernesto is pushing to start this match after impressing as a half-time substitute against Ivory Coast. Forward Amâncio Canhemba plays in Portgual and could also be handed a start.
