Mali’s World Cup qualifying campaign is mixed with inconsistent performances as they continue to dream of a place in the World Cup finals next year. The West African nation whose defensive resilience have carried for so long, must ensure that their guns are firing when they return to action on Sunday as they look to qualify for the World Cup for the first time ever.
A win here could put Mali among the best teams to participate in the playoffs if results favour them elsewhere. Head coach, Tom Saintfiet is positive about the outcome of this match and has called on the home fans to cheer the team to victory as they are inches away from making history.
Meanwhile, Madagascar enter this game on the back of a three-game winning streak. The visitors defeated ten-men Comoros 2-1 in their recent game as they further cemented their second place in Group I. Having scored at least two goals in each of their last three matches, Madagascar will rely on their attacking players ro deliver the goods, as a draw is enough to earn them a playoff ticket.
Corentin Martins’ side will look to build on their decent away form that includes three wins, and a defeat in this World Cup qualifiers. A victory here would see see them bag four successive victories for the second time in 2025, making them one of the teams any opposition should be wary of.
We back the two nations to find the back of the net in this game. It is because, both teams scored in five of Madagascar’s last seven games, and this is an important match for Mali, who must win if they want to earn a spot in the playoffs.
Since this is an important game for the two nations, a high-scoring result is anticipated, as attacking intent is expected from the two countries. Also, Madagascar’s last six matches averaged 2.8 goals per game.
