Angola vs Ghana Betting Tips - Angola to Win
Angola come into Friday's fixture with the luxury of knowing their place in the finals is already secure after an impressive run of victories in Group F.
Sitting at the top of the section with maximum points achieved from four games played, Pedro Gonçalves side secured their place in the finals with a 1:0 win in Niger last month.
A fine run of form has seen the Black Sable Antelope win each of their last eight matches across all competitions since July. Angola remain unbeaten in their last 12 fixtures with nine wins achieved during that run, including a 1:0 win in Ghana in September.
On the other hand, Ghana make the trip to Luanda with their hopes of qualification hanging by a thread after a shock 2:0 defeat against Sudan in October. The Black Stars have now failed to win any of their last four matches and find themselves five points behind the Sudanese with only two games to play.
Away from home, Ghana have failed to win any of their last eight away AFCON qualifiers since 2021 and with Angola in such good form, that run seems likely to extend to nine on Friday.
While already assured of their place in the finals, I expect Angola to maintain their outstanding form with another win this weekend.
I'm backing the hosts to make it five from five in Group F and with it condemn Ghana to a surprise qualification elimination.
