Namibia vs Mali Prediction & Match Preview

Mali’s emphasis will now move onto the third of their group E encounter, which is expected to take place against Namibia at Stade Laurent Pokou.

Mali’s early goal from Lassine Sinayoko was equalled out as Tunisia held them to a 1-1 draw on the second matchday of the group round. Eric Chelle’s team stands at the top of their respective group after collecting four points from the two group matches and is in a very fine position to secure their place in the knockout rounds.

The draw also means that Les Aigles have now extended their unbeaten run to nine matches, during which they have also won seven times against tough opponents.

Their opponents, Namibia, on the other hand, after a fine performance against Tunisia to open their group stage, suffered a 4-0 trashing by South Africa, with Collin Benjamin’s team already down to 3-0 after 40 minutes in the game.

The brave warriors would also be concerned since they have only won twice since June of last year (ten matches). Namibia have also shown their struggles in front of the goal, having been ineffective for some time now, and will undoubtedly hope that their defence can withstand a strong Mali attacks.

Recent Meetings

• The last match between these two was in November 2020, when Mali won 2-1.
• Namibia, with the win, are also on a two-game winning streak against this opposition.

Namibia vs Mali Prediction

Mali’s recent performances of seven wins in their previous nine matches significantly overshadow Namibia, who have also displayed a number of substandard recent performances.

Therefore, a victory for Mali at 1.58 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.

Similarly, the under 2.5 goals option could be a safe option here. Given that Mali has only conceded once in their two group matches, while Namibia has also scored only once in their past three encounters. In addition, our wager would also be that the game will conclude with a 2-0 final score in favour of Mali at 5.50 odds.
