Liberia vs Malawi Prediction: The visitors might pull a surprise stunt here

Liberia will lock horns against Malawi at the Samuel Kanyon Doe Sports Complex on Friday. The Leone Stars last victory was against Central African Republic in 2021, while the visitors head here with a (2-2) draw on their ground against Guinea.

Liberia

FIFA Ranking: 151st

Last five games: DLLLL

The Lone Stars are one of the lowest-ranked teams in this competition, and after playing six games with just a point at the just concluded AFCON Qualifier, they stand no chance here. Liberia are here to participate, just like in 2022, where they secured six points from a combined eighteen.

Liberia's best performance this year was their (2-2) share of the spoils against South Africa on the road, and since then, they have lost four consecutive games.

Liberia participated in the AFCON tournament in 2002, and it will take them a long time to appear in the World Cup.

Malawi

FIFA Ranking: 123th

Last five games: LLDDD

Since their opening game victory against Ethiopia, Malawi have lost three and drawn three. Malawi ended their AFCON Qualifying campaign in third place, picking up five points from a possible eighteen.

The Flames have been poor since their appearance in the AFCON Tournament last year, and with three games and six games without a win, they might just be here to participate again.

Expert Betting Tips

Both teams have actually been poor for some time now, but Malawi Stand a better chance even though the bookies see it from another angle. Liberia's recent game against Morocco wasn't bad; however, we think they’ll struggle here even with their home advantage. This game will be evenly contested, and I think both teams settle for a share of the spoils for 3.20.

We expect to see under 1.5 goals in both halves for 1.76.

Malawi might just pull a surprise stunt here for 4.00.

Good luck!
