The Chipolopolo are set to face off against Angola in a crucial Group A match of the TotalEnergies CAF African Nations Championship (CHAN) today

After losing to DR Congo in their opening match, Zambia needs a win to revive their campaign. The match is scheduled for 17h00 CAT at the Nyayo National Stadium.

Angola is also desperate for a victory following a loss and a draw in their first two matches. The Palancas Negras will be looking to utilize the threat posed by Jó Paciência and Aguinaldo Matias to aid their chase for victory. Zambia's coach, Avram Grant, has been preparing his team for this match, with skipper Kabaso Chongo rallying the troops.

The Chipolopolo will look to utilize the skills of players like Kelvin Kampamba, Evans Kayombo, Wilson Chisala, and Benedict Chepeshi to secure a good result. Having shaken off the first game nerves, the proficiency of these players should be able to earn the Chipolopolo a good outcome.

In the current Group A standings, Kenya leads with 4 points, followed by Morocco with 3 points. DR Congo is third with 3 points but has a better goal difference than Morocco. Angola and Zambia are fourth and fifth, respectively, with Angola having 1 point and Zambia having 0 points. A win for either team would significantly boost their chances of advancing in the tournament.
