Angola vs Ghana Predictions


There is little to play for in this match. Ghana are struggling and saw eight players withdraw from their squad. I’m backing a home win.

  • Angola have won their last 8 matches.
  • Ghana are winless in 13 of their last 14 away matches (7 losses). 
  • Ghana have seen BTTS Yes in 6 of their last 7 matches.

Head to Head


Ghana hold a 2-1 advantage over Angola across five previous meetings with two draws.

When the sides last met in September, Angola pulled off a shock 1-0 win in Kumasi thanks to a 93rd-minute winner.

Angola Form


Palancas Negras are unbeaten in 12 matches and have four wins from four in AFCON qualifying. They’ve secured their place at the main tournament and have nothing to play for here. 

After a famous late 1-0 win in Ghana, they beat Sudan 2-1 at home. Two wins over Niger followed in October’s FIFA break.

A 2-0 home win over Niger came after two goals in the last 20 minutes. A 1-0 away win in Morocco followed as they beat Niger 1-0 after scoring in the first minute.

Angola Injuries & Team News


Coach Pedro Gonçalves has a full-strength squad available. Veteran midfielder Fredy will captain the side.

Al Ahli striker Mabululu has 13 goals in 37 caps and is the key man.

Goalkeepers: Neblú, Rui, Ricardo Baptista.
Defenders: Tô Carneiro, Bastos, Jonathan Buatu, Clinton Mata, David Carmo, Jordy Gaspar, Kialonda Gaspar, Núrio Fortuna, Pedro Bondo.
Midfielders: Aldair Ferreira, Fredy, Maestro, Domingos Andrade, João Batxi, Show, Randy N'teka.
Forwards: Zine Salvador, Mabululu, Gibelé, Milson, Chico Banza, Mbala Nzola and Zito Luvumbo.

Ghana Form


The Black Stars have been in dire form over the last year. They began AFCON qualifying after a run of just three wins in 12 matches. 

A shock 1-0 home loss to Angola started their qualifying campaign. Two draws followed, 1-1 in Niger and 0-0 at home versus Sudan. 

Their last match brought a damaging 2-0 loss away to Sudan. Even two wins in the final two qualifiers may not be enough to reach the tournament.

Ghana Injuries & Team News


Coach Otto Addo has seen eight players withdraw from the squad. 

Antoine Semenyo, Inaki Williams and Tariq Lamptey are three of the key players who will play no part.

Goalkeepers: Lawrence Ati-Zigi, Jojo Wollacott, Fredrick Asare
Defenders: Alexander Djiku, Gideon Mensah, Alidu Seidu, Mohammed Salisu, Baba Rahman, Jerome Opoku, Ebenezer Annan, Abdul Mumin
Midfielders: Thomas Partey, Mohammed Kudus, Salis Abdul Samed, Edmund Addo, Ernest Nuamah, Elisha Owusu, Abu Francis, Ibrahim Sulemana 
Forwards: Jordan Ayew, Kamaldeen Sulemana, Osman Bukari, Ibrahim Osman, Brandon Thomas-Asante
