Mauritania vs Botswana Prediction & Betting Tips - AFCON
by Devesh Jaganath in AFCON Predictions
Mauritania and Botswana will commence their Africa Cup of Nations qualification campaign on Saturday evening when they face off at Stade Cheikha Ould Boidiya in Nouakchott. Al-Murabitun and Dipitse are joined in Group C by Cape Verde and Egypt who meet on Friday. Check out our match prediction below.
Mauritania will begin their journey to qualify for Africa’s premier cup competition on Friday, just seven months on from managing their best-ever AFCON campaign, reaching the round of 16 in the Ivory Coast earlier this year.
After Al-Murabitun were knocked out of the competition by Cape Verde 1-0, and since then, their form has been very poor, as they have failed to win any of their last four matches in all competitions, losing three and drawing one.
Notably, Mauritania enter this fixture having failed to score a single goal in their last five matches in all competitions and have found the net only three times in their last 10 outings.
Meanwhile, Botswana will be hoping that this will be the year that they return to the AFCON, having only made it to the main draw once in their history which was back in the 2011-12 season.
Dipitse have played eight matches in all competitions this year and have managed a record of one win, five draws and two losses in that time. Notably, their most recent three games were at the COSAFA Cup, where they ended winless with two goalless draws and a 3-1 loss to Mozambique.
Away from home, Botswana have only won one of their last 10 games in all competitions, while the remaining nine ended with six defeats and three draws. They have also lost their last two matches against this opponent.

Our Mauritania vs Botswana Prediction
While Mauritania have improved over the last year or so and reached the knockout stage of the previous AFCON, they have been in very poor form in the lead-up to this competition, failing to score in their last five matches.
Botswana had an unimpressive COSAFA Cup campaign in June which ended winless and saw the side fail to score in two of their three matches. This feels like it could be a bit of a slow-burner where the first goal could easily end up being the winner. Our Mauritania vs Botswana prediction: Under 2.5!
