Malawi vs Seychelles Predictions by Football Ground Guide

Malawi won their COSAFA Cup opening match against  Zambia and hopes to extend the good run to this second round of the competition. Malawi clashes with Seychelles in the second round, a team that lost massively in the first round in a 0-3 thrashing against Seychelles. Will Seychelles survive another onslaught?

The following are our top Malawi vs Seychelles predictions, round 2 of the 20223 COSAFA Cup:

Team to Score Prediction: Both Teams to Score – No

In our first Malawi vs Seychelles prediction, we are tipping a one-sided scoring match. Malawi has only two goals in their last five, so while the Flames are expected to consume the Pirates of Seychelles, we think it will be a narrow clean sheet win.

Total Match Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

We don't expect many goals in this matchup. Both sides have been poor at scoring goals, a trend we expect to continue in this game. Malawians scored two goals in their last five matches while Seychelles found the back of the net twice in as many matches. With that, the probability of Malawi vs Seychelles ending with at most two goals is high.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-0 to Malawi

Malawi won the previous duel with Seychelles, a match that the Flames scored three goals to nil. In this second meeting, and on the back of a 1-0 victory in round 1, Malawians will be more than determined to bag another win. The Pirates of Seychelles were shambolic in round 1 and with a global ranking putting the visitors in position 196, they are expected to struggle in this second duel with Malawi. Malawai won the previous meeting 3-0.

Malawi vs Seychelles Fixture Preview

This will be the second encounter between Malawi and Seychelles, noting that the Pirates of Seychelles lost the previous duel.

Malawi comes to this duel with a win in the opening round. They defeated  Zambia to bag three crucial points and now sit in second place and at three points par with Comoros. Malawi will need at least two goals to catch up with Comoros and a win will keep the race to a playoff spot.

On the other hand, Seychelles were defeated 0-3 by Comoros in the opening round. This will be another tough assignment for the visitors as a loss would make things even more difficult for the Pirates. Seychelles lost 3-0 in the only previous encounter with Malawi, so it will be interesting to see how they live up to this new expectation in the second duel with the Flames of Malawi.
