World Cup 2010 Qual. - Malawi v Djibouti

CAF, WC 2010 Qual., 1. Round,

Two minnows in African football play each other, but Malawi is here the clear favourite. Home ground is in Africa a real advantage, as average or even subaverage squads gain hope to collect some point(s) against stronger opponents on home soil. In Blantyre Malawi plays Djibouti. Malawi is Nr. 136 in the world, a weak team, where the better players play in South African League and only 2 players play in Europe, a defender in Danish 2. League and a striker, Kanyenda, in Rostov, Russia. But they manage to beat Zimbabwe (95. in WR) in the last African Cup quali. Djibouti belongs to the weakest teams (with the Comores and Somalia) in Africa. They ´ve never won a official FIFA match until 16. nov 2007 when they beat Somalia 1-0 in a pre-quali match. Djiboutis players are not professionals, they have a nice nickname, shoremen of the Red Sea, and it is a success for them fo play with teams like Congo DR and Egypt. They will probably loose all 6 games in their group. As example how weak they are: they lost two friendlies in Dec. 2007, 0-9 Ruanda (110. in WR) and 0-7 Uganda (92. in WR). I expect a clear home win!
