WAFCON: Who will win between Cameroon 🇨🇲 vs Malawi 🇲🇼? Prediction Kenya
The Final Showdown: Cameroon 🇨🇲 vs Malawi 🇲🇼
Mambo, predictors. We're at the climax of WAFCON 2026, and it's the kind of storyline you don't forget. Malawi will play Cameroon in the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations final after the Scorchers beat Algeria 3-1 and the Indomitable Lionesses eliminated hosts Morocco in a penalty shootout. One trophy, two nations dreaming, and you can predict the champion right here on Kadiplay.
Malawi's Fairytale Run
Check this: Ranked No 153 in the world, Malawi was playing in the WAFCON tournament for the first time. And yet Malawi held on for the 3-1 victory and will now compete for their first continental crown in their debut tournament appearance. The Chawinga sisters have been absolutely wazi. Captain Tabitha Chawinga and Temwa Chawinga combined for all three Malawi goals in the semi-final. Cameroon beat powerhouse Nigeria 1-0 to reach the semifinals, its second win over Nigeria at WAFCON in 14 meetings. Now they face this unstoppable Malawi side hunting history.
Cameroon: Experience and Redemption
The Indomitable Lionesses bring pedigree to this final. With six podium finishes, Cameroon are the third-most successful nation in Women's AFCON history behind Nigeria and South Africa. But they've never won the trophy. The best memory for the Lionesses remains a bitter one: the 2016 final, played at home, narrowly lost to Nigeria. This disappointment continues to fuel the determination of a team that has established itself, over the years, as one of the continent's most consistent sides, but has never converted that consistency into a title. That hunger is real. Cameroon and Morocco drew 0-0 after 120 minutes before Cameroon won the shootout 3-1. Marie Ngah, Rose Bella and Myriam Nyadjou converted for Cameroon. They've shown mental toughness, twende.
Breaking Down the Clash
This is David vs Goliath, but David's been playing like a champion. Malawi entered as debutants with the lowest FIFA ranking in the tournament, yet they've matched stronger nations step for step. Their direct, aggressive style has caught everyone off guard. Cameroon, meanwhile, carries the weight of history: four previous finals, three runners-up finishes, and the burning desire to finally lift continental glory.
The key will be whether Malawi can sustain their intensity against experience, or whether Cameroon's composure and tradition will prove decisive. Both teams have already qualified for the 2027 FIFA Women's World Cup, but that's secondary now. One of these nations will be African champions.
What to Watch For
The Chawinga sisters will be central to Malawi's attacking play, but Cameroon's defence has been solid through the knockout stages. Cameroon's midfield experience and set-piece discipline could be the edge. Malawi's energy and youthful hunger could wear down a team that's played through extra time and penalties.
This is the kind of prediction market that rewards your football knowledge. The final kicks off Sunday, and history is on the line for both teams.
