Angola vs Argentina: Team News and Expected Lineups
Angola goalkeeper Neblu is likely to be preferred over Hugo Marques in Friday’s international clash, with the 31-year-old expected to feature between the posts. He could be protected by a back four comprising Clinton Mata, David Carmo, Kialonda Gaspar, and To Carneiro.
At the other end of the pitch, Mabululu is set to lead the line for the hosts as they prepare to take on the 2022 World Cup champions.
For Argentina, preparations have been disrupted by late withdrawals. Nahuel Molina, Julian Alvarez, and Giuliano Simeone were forced to pull out of the squad after failing to complete yellow fever vaccination requirements needed to enter Angola.
Additionally, Enzo Fernandez has been ruled out of the international window as he continues to recover from a knee problem.
In response, head coach Lionel Scaloni has called up Emiliano Buendia (Aston Villa), Leandro Paredes (Boca Juniors), and Kevin Mac Allister (Union Saint-Gilloise) — the brother of Alexis Mac Allister.
Captain Lionel Messi is expected to start and lead the Albiceleste, while Geronimo Rulli could replace Emiliano Martinez in goal as Scaloni opts to rest the Aston Villa shot-stopper.
