    Zambia
    Group A of the CAF Africa Cup of Nations brings together hosts Morocco, Comoros, and two teams in transition: Mali and Zambia. Mali boast quality, especially in midfield and defence, and while they can be overly structured at times, the presence of sharper attackers like Dorgeles Nene, Kamory Doumbia, and El Bilal Toure should give them a cutting edge. Zambia are entering a rebuild and, although there may be gradual improvement, they still seem limited and unlikely to trouble a disciplined Mali side.

      Zambia begin their Africa Cup of Nations campaign, with their last four outings yielding four defeats and nine goals conceded. They lost their last meeting with Mali a few years ago, and the favourites have won three of their last five fixtures. Across all competitions, 5 out of Mali's last 7 matches ended with a maximum of 2 goals scored in 90 minutes. 5 out of Zambia's last 7 matches also ended with a similar result. Furthermore, in their last 4 encounters, 3 matches ended with a total of no more than 2 goals. Therefore, this match is unlikely to exceed 2 goals. Predicted result: Mali vs Zambia: 2-0. Expected lineup Mali: Samassa; Dante, Fofana, Niakate, W. Coulibaly; Dieng, Sangare; L. Doumbia, Nene Coulibaly; Toure Zambia: Mulenga; Bandar, Musonda, Chanda, Hamansenya; Phindi, Simunkonda, Chaiwa, Sakala; Kangwa, Daka

    • Nigeria possess one of the most accomplished squads on the African continent, yet the Super Eagles enter their opening fixture against Tanzania carrying the burden of recent underachievement relative to their talent. On paper, the disparity in quality is clear. The Nigerian side boasts considerable depth, particularly in attacking areas, where individual brilliance abounds. Much of their offensive promise rests on the shoulders of Ademola Lookman and Victor Osimhen, whose developing partnership has shown encouraging signs in recent outings. However, their overall effectiveness has often been undermined by a lack of collective cohesion, especially in progressing the ball cleanly into advanced positions.

    • Tunisia enter the North African edition of the CAF Africa Cup of Nations as one of the tournament favourites, beginning their Group C campaign against Uganda in Morocco. African international football is often defined by tactical caution and narrow margins, and Tunisia exemplify this reality. The Tunisia national football team are highly disciplined, preferring a compact, counter-attacking approach that prioritises defensive solidity, game control, and clinical use of limited chances. They rarely dominate matches through volume of opportunities, but instead through structure, patience, and efficiency. Uganda mirror aspects of this philosophy. The Uganda national football team have improved defensively, reinforced by the inclusion of Toby Sibbick and Jordan Obita, which adds physicality and organisation at the back. However, their attacking options remain limited, particularly against elite opposition capable of managing risk and tempo.
