Madagascar
After a successful 2019, the "Barea" missed the next two continental tournaments. In their previous qualification campaign alongside Ghana, Angola, and the Central African Republic, Madagascar finished last, collecting only three points and scoring just once, highlighting severe issues in attack.
However, they seem to have addressed these problems. In the World Cup qualifiers, Romuald Rakotondrabe's team earned seven points in four matches, currently sitting fourth in Group I. Notably, after a narrow loss to Ghana in the first round, Madagascar defeated Chad 3-0 away and claimed a home win over group leaders Comoros. In their most recent qualifier, Madagascar played to a 0-0 draw with Mali at home. In the first round of the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, Madagascar lost 1-0 to Tunisia away.
Comoros
The "Coelacanths" surprised many at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations by reaching the Round of 16. However, they failed to qualify for the next tournament. In a group with Zambia, Côte d'Ivoire, and Lesotho, Comoros finished third, six points behind the top two teams.
In the World Cup qualifiers, Stefano Cusin's side has had a strong start, leading Group I with nine points from four games. They secured home wins over the Central African Republic (4-2) and Ghana (1-0), and in their last outing, they triumphed 2-0 away against Chad. The "Coelacanths" also performed well in the COSAFA Cup, reaching the semifinals and narrowly losing to Mozambique in the third-place match on penalties. In the first round of the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, Comoros drew 1-1 at home against Gambia.
