Malawi and Zambia set for 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations live broadcast

The Women’s Africa Cup of Nations 2026 meeting between Malawi and Zambia will be shown live on Wednesday, 5 August 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 20:00 GMT.

Viewers in France and the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region can watch the match through beIN Sports, including coverage on beIN Sports MAX.

The game will also be available to supporters elsewhere through a number of broadcasters covering sub-Saharan Africa. Canal+ Afrique and SuperSport are both showing the fixture, providing additional options for viewers in the region.

The match is part of the 2026 edition of the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations and brings together Malawi and Zambia in a meeting that will be available across television and digital platforms.

Fans in the countries involved can also follow the game on their respective national television channels. The source information confirms that national broadcasters in the countries concerned will carry the match, alongside the international and regional networks.

For viewers living in territories without an exclusive television agreement, the fixture will be streamed free of charge on the CAF TV YouTube channel. Availability of that online stream depends on whether a broadcaster holds exclusive rights in the viewer’s region.

The full broadcast options are therefore divided between pay-TV networks, national channels and CAF’s digital platform. In France and the MENA region, beIN Sports is the main listed broadcaster, with beIN Sports MAX among the channels carrying the tournament coverage. In sub-Saharan Africa, Canal+ Afrique and SuperSport are also named as outlets for the match.

Kick-off is set for 20:00 GMT on Wednesday, 5 August 2026. Supporters using television coverage can watch through the applicable sports network or national channel in their territory, while those in regions without television exclusivity can use the CAF TV YouTube stream.

The Malawi-Zambia fixture is consequently available through several different distribution arrangements, although the specific platform depends on the country in which the viewer is located. The confirmed options are beIN Sports in France and MENA, Canal+ Afrique and SuperSport in sub-Saharan Africa, national television channels in the countries concerned, and CAF TV on YouTube where no television exclusivity applies.
