The Mediterranean Knights suffered their first loss in the group, losing by just a goal against Cape Verde on the road. After conceding an early goal that destabilized their plans, Libya failed to find the leveler against a well-drilled opponent. Before then, they had defeated Mauritius (2-1) on their home ground, even with ten men on the pitch. Libya presently sit in second place despite their recent loss.
Libya have invested a lot in improving their National Football Team in recent months, which includes the acquisition of a well-experienced coach, Aliou Cisse. The former Senegal tactician will be saddled with the task of ensuring Libya make it to the 2027 AFCON Tournament.
Angola
FIFA Ranking: 85th
Last four matches: DDWD
The Giant Sable Antelopes have been playing as a team in recent matches, heading here with just a loss in sixteen consecutive matches in all competitions. They have started well in this qualifier, maintaining their unbeaten run. Angola's last FIFA World Cup qualifier ended in a share of the spoils against Cameroon on their ground. It wasn’t their best performance, but a point against such a formidable opponent might be worth it at the end of the day.
The Giant Sable Antelopes began their FIFA Qualifying campaign with a stalemate against Cape Verde and Mauritius away from home while winning against Eswatini.
Angola have named a strong side for this clash, and they’ll be hopeful of assuming the top spot.

Expert Betting Tips
Both teams met in the same tournament in 2021, with Libya securing four points in six across both legs. It’s a new dawn in Libya Football as they plan to revive themselves in competitive tournaments. The change prompted the signing of experienced coach Aliou Cissé, who will make his debut against a strong opponent tomorrow. Libya have had a pretty decent start to their FIFA World Cup qualifier and they’ll be keen to maintain such momentum against Angola tomorrow.
The guests have been one of the most consistent teams in the continent lately, and they’ll strive to stun their opponent. Angola will miss the service of their key player, Bastos, who got injured while on club duty. It’ll be hard to replace such a reliable defender, and it might cost them in this highly competitive fixture.
Libya have the resources to get the job done and their home advantage will be key in their attempt to secure the maximum points against Angola tomorrow. The likely outcome here is a stalemate, but I will back the hosts to win or draw and score more than a goal for 2.32 at (Betway).
I also think Angola are capable of finding the back of the net, considering the front three of Mabululu, Dala, and Gilberto; bet on BTTS for 2.20 at (Bet365).
Libya will start strong and might likely get a goal before the break for 2.46 at (1xbet).
Good luck!
