Zambia vs Comoros live streams: How to watch AFCON 2025 clash online and on TV as group A gets serious

Watch Zambia vs Comoros at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations today, as FourFourTwo brings you a comprehensive guide on live streams and TV coverage wherever you are in the world.

2012 winners Zambia looked to be heading for defeat in their opening fixture of AFCON 2025 in Casablanca.

Leicester City striker Patson Daka saved the day with a stoppage-time equaliser against Mali but his enthusiastic celebration went badly wrong.

The 27-year-old avoided what could have been a serious self-inflicted injury after cancelling out Lassine Sinayoko's opener.

Daka's team face Comoros on Friday looking to jump to four points and all but book their place in the last 16.

Zambia vs Comoros: Preview

Comoros, playing in the Africa Cup of Nations finals for the second time, stood up well to the challenge of playing the host nation in torrential rain on opening night.

Morocco were 2-0 winners in the end but Comoros, while second-best all over, managed to give them a scare or two against the odds.

The Coelacanths got out of the group stage in their previous appearance in 2021, beating Ghana in their last group game to qualify in third place.

Cameroon ended their progress in the round of 16 but the experienced head coach Stefano Cusin will fancy his chances of taking them through again if they can beat Zambia on Friday.

Comoros go into their second group match as underdogs. Zambia had to get themselves out of a muddle against Mali but their Africa Cup of Nations pedigree is not to be taken lightly.

The Copper Bullets have reached the final three times, winning once, and will feel they have unfinished business.

After missing out on the tournament three times consecutively, Zambia bowed out in the group stage, winless, in 2023.

Moses Sichone, in his first managerial role, will lead his nation out in Casablanca knowing that a win would most likely secure their passage to the knock-out rounds.

FourFourTwo's prediction

Zambia 2-0 Comoros

Zambia needed a last-gasp equaliser in their first match but confidence should be higher for it. Comoros were overpowered by Morocco and it could happen again.
