South Sudan's last nine matches paint a different picture. One win, two draws and six losses, with 15 goals conceded in that spell, points to a side that's been leaking goals against regional opposition rather than holding things tight.
That gap in output goes a long way to explaining why Angola are such heavy favourites here.
Comparative Team Statistics: Angola vs South Sudan
Early qualifying placings
In this qualifying group so far, Angola have taken four points from two games, a win and a draw without defeat, and have conceded just once. South Sudan have lost both of their games and sit without a point, already shipping seven goals in the process.
| № | Team | Played | Win | Draw | Loss | GF/GA | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group B | |||||||
| 1 | Egypt | 2 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 5/0 | 4 |
| 2 | Angola | 2 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 3/1 | 4 |
| 3 | Malawi | 2 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 3/4 | 3 |
| 4 | South Sudan | 2 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 1/7 | 0 |
We only have the standings line for these two sides, so it's not the full group table, but the gap between them in points and goal difference is already clear from what's shown.
Limited fitness notes
The only team news available points to two Angola players, Pedro Francisco and Manuel Keliano, picking up a yellow card apiece in their most recent outing. That's not a suspension flag, just a sign there's been some needle in recent games.
x 1 x 1There's no comparable team news listed for South Sudan, so we can't speak to their squad situation either way.
How this one might unfold
Angola have found goals against a wide range of opposition recently, while South Sudan have managed just seven goals in nine matches away from home. That imbalance suggests the game could tilt heavily towards one side rather than being an even contest.
Given South Sudan's defensive struggles and Angola's healthier start in this group, the likeliest shape is Angola controlling possession and territory, with the main uncertainty being just how comfortable the winning margin ends up being.

Putting the form gap and the early group standings together, Angola look firmly the stronger side here, and South Sudan's away record offers little to suggest they can keep the scoreline close.
The handicap line asks Angola to win by two clear goals, which is a fair ask given how often they've scored freely, but it's not automatic against a side that can occasionally make them work for it.
