Mauritania will get to size it out against Tunisia again in a period of about three days. The two face off in Mauritania with the hosts having no point at the bottom of Group B while Tunisia are at the top with nine points. Mauritania are coming off a 3-0 thrashing by Tunisia away from home and we expect the same here. They have three straight losses and have failed to score in the last two. In World Cup qualifiers, they’ve lost five straight matches, conceding two or more goals in four of the five and four of the five have also produced over 2.5 goals. These two nations also met in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers and Tunisia claimed home and away wins over Mauritania again. In eight meetings between the two nations, Mauritania are winless, losing six of them, and they have scored no goals in the last four.

Tunisia will hope to widen the gap at the top and they are in the form to do that, having managed four straight wins ahead of this clash. They just thumped Mauritania 3-0 and apart from tactical changes, we don’t expect a lot of variation in the teams that will face off again. The North African have four straight clean sheets as well, and have scored two or more goals in the last three. They’ve lost just once in the last 17 matches and go to this game without a loss in their last 11 in World Cup qualification, with four straight clean sheets. Tunisia have scored two or more goals in four of their last five away matches in World Cup qualification. Three of their last five away matches in World Cup qualification, have produced over 2.5 goals as well.
