Mauritania vs Gambia: The opponents' level won't allow them to score many goals

Mauritania face Gambia in the Africa Cup of Nations. Who will be the stronger of the two sides? See what shape the teams are in and get tips on what to bet. 

Mauritania

The Mauritania team of Mauritania has no chance of making the playoffs. Even if they get three points in this match, they will be doomed ahead of schedule in the meetings with Tunisia and Mali. And with three points from third place in the group, they are unlikely to get out. In the autumn, Mauritania played six matches in qualifying for the World Cup in Qatar, where they scored only two points.

Gambia

The same can be said for the Gambian national team. Even if they are successful in the upcoming game, the Gambians are doomed to fail in the next two. However, it's unlikely they don't realise it themselves. Gambia did not qualify for the 2022 World Cup in the autumn, so they played friendlies. They beat South Sudan (2-1) but suffered defeats (0-2 and 2-7) to New Zealand and the Moroccan substitutes.
