No side above Egypt on 4 points
Their 4 points put Egypt at the top of the table. So far this season, Egypt have found the net 5 times across 2 outings. Only a goal separated the hosts from South Africa in their last match, which they lost 1-0. Poor form has dogged the hosts, who have collected 5 of a possible 15 points across five matches.
3 points have taken Malawi to third, a place in the league's top three. Joint leaders on 1, lloyd njaliwa and Adepoju adebare babatunde reflect how widely the visitors have shared the scoring.
The pattern across the last 5 meetings is clear, with 4 wins going to Egypt.
