Both Angola and Namibia are out to win their first-ever knockout game at the Africa Cup of Nations when they kick the last-16 off today.
An unbeaten group stage sent Angola through as group winners, where they will harbour genuine ambitions of going deep - even if the winner of this game will face Cameroon or Nigeria in the quarter-finals.
Collin Benjamin's Namibia meanwhile stunned Tunisia to win their first AFCON match, before failing to score against South Africa and Mali as they qualified in third place of Group E.
However, the Brave Warriors have impressed with their bombastic attacking style and will approach what could be described as their biggest-ever game with confidence.
Angola vs Namibia is scheduled for a 5pm GMT kick-off today, Saturday, January 27, 2024.
The match will take place at Stade de la Paix in Bouake.
