Mauritania vs Angola Prediction, Betting Tips & Odds │20 JANUARY, 2024

Mauritania, left disheartened by their initial defeat in the opening game, aims for a comeback as they take on Angola in the Africa Cup of Nations clash at Stade de la Paix on Saturday. The Lions of Chinguetti faced a setback with a late penalty loss to Burkina Faso in their Group D debut, while the Palancas Negras managed to secure a 1-1 draw against the 2019 champions, Algeria.

In spite of delivering a strong performance against Burkina Faso, Mauritania found themselves on the wrong side of a 1-0 defeat after conceding a late penalty, expertly converted by Bertrand Traore. Amir Abdou's team received praise for their disciplined defensive play against the Stallions, displaying controlled aggression that limited their more favored opponents' success for a significant portion of the match. While Mauritania aims to pose a greater attacking threat against Angola, their ability to maintain defensive solidity provides a foundation for success. Still in pursuit of maximum points at AFCON, the upcoming Saturday clash offers another opportunity for the Lions of Chinguetti to secure their first win in the Cup of Nations, marking their eighth appearance at the continental showcase. Whether this aspiration materializes remains uncertain, but Abdou is expected to demand a similar level of dedication from his team, matching the industry displayed against Burkina Faso to give them a competitive edge against the Angolans.

Palancas Negras aim to build on their performance against Algeria as they enter their second Group D match at AFCON 2023. Pedro Goncalves's team started slowly against the North Africans, facing the potential of a 2-0 deficit in the first half, but Baghdad Bounedjah's acrobatic goal was disallowed for offside. The Southern African nation rebounded strongly in the second half, creating several promising counter-attacks, only to be let down by suboptimal execution until their 68th-minute equalizer. This came from the penalty spot, courtesy of first-half substitute Mabululu, who successfully converted his penalty after Nabil Bentaleb's foul was penalized midway through the second half. Securing a valuable point against Algeria, Angola recognizes that a victory against the Lions of Chinguetti would virtually guarantee their place in the round of 16.

The history of this fixture has seen results evenly split, with Mauritania and Angola securing one victory each in their past four meetings. The most recent encounter in the Africa Cup of Nations occurred in January 2013, resulting in a goalless draw in Cameroon. Mauritania has faced challenges in AFCON, losing their last four matches, conceding eight goals and failing to score since a goalless draw against Tunisia in 2019. On the other hand, Angola has struggled to secure a win in their last seven outings across all competitions, registering six draws and one loss since their 4-2 victory over Lesotho in the COSAFA Cup last July.

Mauritania possible starting lineup:

Niasse; Keita, El Abd, Yali, Abeid; Thiam, Gassama, Fofana, Tanjy; Koita, Anne

Angola possible starting lineup:

Neblu; Mananga, Gaspar, Quinito; Augusto, Fredy, Show, Fortuna; Luvumbo, Mabululu, Dala

Both Mauritania and Angola, having been unsuccessful in winning their opening games, are eager to kickstart their AFCON campaign over the weekend. Evaluating the recent performances of both teams, Angola appears to have an advantage. With a robust defensive strategy and a well-balanced offense, I am inclined to support Angola in this matchup, predicting them to secure a victory over the struggling Mauritania.
