FIFA World Cup, the centre of international football, captivates the world every four years. However, before the grandeur of the tournament itself, teams from across the globe embark on a thrilling journey known as the FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

Malawi will face the threat of Tunisia which is one of the competitive National football team in the context of African football.Tunisia has qualified for the FIFA World Cup on five occasions,their qualification itself is considered a significant accomplishment and despite that they also have a strong domestic league which produces talented players who often play in Europe’s top leagues.

On the other hand equatorial Guinea ranked the 91st by FIFA has alittle football heritage just like Malawi.From their previous matches, Malawi has won 5 of the 7 matches played between these two teams since 2005.They both have competitive players who are strong and have been performing very well in other matches.
The Namibia football team has never qualified for the FIFA World Cup, but has twice been runner up in the COSAFA Cup.With their collective force and pressure when playing on the field,might see them going through easily.Malawi and Namibia played 5 Games since 2011.Among them, Malawi won 3 games and drew 2 of them.
