Estádio Nacional 24 de Setembro will be the venue for the AFCON qualifying encounter between Guinea Bissau and Mali. Mali won the first leg of this game. At home, can Guinea Bissau get things right?

Guinea Bissau

Guinea Bissau will hope they find their luck in this qualifier after consecutive defeats. In the opening round of games, this team took on Eswatini at home, with Bura's 14th-minute goal being the difference. However, this team struggled against Mozambique in round 2 and ended up losing 2-1 while also struggling against Mali. Heading into this game, Guinea Bissau have three points and sit in the Group I AFCON qualifier standings. 

Mali

Mali secured a 1-0 win in the first leg of this fixture and will look to be at their best again. Mali had 53 percent of the possession in that fixture and attempted 14 shots with six on target. Thanks to El Bilal Toure’s strike, Mali secured their second win in this AFCON qualifier. Heading into this game, Mali have an unbeaten run of four games, winning two and drawing two. In the Group I standings, Mali have seven points, scoring three and conceding one. 

Expert Betting Tips

Mali have been very good, and they come into this game as a favorite. However, with Guinea Bissau suffering consecutive defeats, they will be confident of righting their wrongs. In short, this is an open game for the two teams, but Mali have dominated in the past and should take maximum points here.
