As the Africa Zone qualifiers for the 2018 World Cup wind up, Group C’s whipping boys, Gabon and Mali will be facing off on Saturday 11th November in one of the matches that have no impact whatsoever on who will get the slot from the group.

Gabon head to the game on a run of four losses and one win in the last five. They have managed one win in their last 10 home matches and in the last five at home, they are winless - two losses and three draws, in the process scoring two goals and conceding six. In the last 14 matches, Gabon have picked just one win and they have three wins in their last 10 World Cup qualifiers. Gabon have six wins in 10 World Cup qualifiers at home. Mali on the other hand, have gone winless in their last five matches, registering three draws and two losses, and playing away from home, the run is the same – three draws and two losses, with three goals scored and 10 conceded in their last five away games.
