Egypt enter this match on the back of a 2-3 defeat, while Angola recently claimed a 3-0 victory in their latest outing. The confidence levels of both sides heading into the pitch therefore look quite contrasting for this African qualification fixture. Although the hosts' recent form has stumbled somewhat, returning to their home ground still sees them consistently creating attacking opportunities and taking the game to their opponents. As for the visitors, Angola, despite being on a 4-match unbeaten run, their away fixtures tend to focus primarily on defensive solidity and clearly produce fewer scoring chances. The pattern of play should see the home side dominating possession and applying pressure right from the start, with the first key aspect to watch after kickoff being whether the hosts' rapid penetration in the opening 15 minutes can yield an early breakthrough.
