Malawi vs Northern Ireland prediction
Malawi have had less recovery time than Northern Ireland having played the evening game, where they were beaten by South Africa 64-44. Northern Ireland meanwhile, were hammered by England in an 83-34 defeat. Whilst they won’t face opponents of England’s quality every match, you can’t help but feel that the Northern Irish players are out of their depth.
There is more experience on the Malawi side and defensively they should make it very difficult for Northern Ireland to score freely. In the end, the expectation is that Malawi will do enough to pick up their first victory of the group stage and leave Northern Ireland still without any points.
