Tanzania are at Afcon. Read about their English players, who I went to interview.
In shocking domestic news … my neighbours have put out their green bin in anticipation of a collection tomorrow but there is not one this week. When will people learn?
In eight previous meetings, Angola have never beaten Egypt. The Pharaohs have been victorious on four occasions, with the same amount of draws. It would be a good day for Angola to notch their first triumph.
Osasu Obayiuwana offers up insight from Casablanca on the tournament’s early stages.
Here’s what happened yesterday in Morocco.
Salah is left on the bench for Egypt, allowing him a little rest before the knockout stages. Hopefully he will not be too angry and head to the mixed zone afterwards to express his views about being a sub.

Preamble
Egypt have already secured a spot in the knockout stages but will want to go through in top spot and with a perfect record. They have edged past Zimbabwe and South Africa in their opening two group games, so will fancy a more convincing result this time around.
Angola have their own battle to win because they are aiming to get to the next stage too. Three points would be enough to get them through as one of the best-performing third-placed teams. If Egypt take their foot off the gas slightly, Angola will sense an opportunity of an upset.
Kick-off: 4pm GMT
