The Match

Preview

Sports Mole previews Thursday's Africa Cup of Nations clash between Mali and Mauritania, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

We said: Mali 2-0 Mauritania

Mali were denied a place in the knockout stages last time out when they played out a draw with Gambia. However, like all good sides do, we are tipping them to bounce back to winning ways against a floundering Mauritania side and qualify for the next phase of the tournament. Read more.
