Nigeria vs Mali Prediction & Betting Tips - International Friendlies
by Daniel Ngulu in Football Predictions
Nigeria will wrap up their international break with a friendly match against Mali at the Stade de Marrakech on Tuesday. The two nations are looking to build on wins in their earlier matches in the current international window. Mali were 2-0 winners over Mauritania, their second win in three matches. This was a good response to their loss in the earlier game, a late defeat to Ivory Coast at AFCON 2023. The match also marked a first clean sheet in three, and Mali will seek to build on the gains. Their good scoring form will be the biggest strength they carry to this game. Mali have failed to score in just one of their last 13 matches. They however have just three clean sheets in 10 matches Les Aigles will be unfazed about having to play away from home. They haven't lost in any of their last four away matches.
This will be the first meeting between these two sides in eight years; Nigeria won in the last encounter. The Super Eagles have also been on a string scoring run against Mali, failing to score just once in six meetings. Coming into this game, Nigeria conceded late in their 2-1 win over Ghana in their first friendly game. Goals from Cyril Dessers and Ademola Lookman rendered Jordan Ayew’s last minute penalty goal a mere consolation. The win was a welcome return to action after their loss to Ivory Coast in the 2023 AFCON final. While they come into this game on a good run of form, Nigeria still need to work on their defence. They haven't managed a clean sheet in their last three matches. Nigeria have however made up for that with a good scoring run. In their last eight matches, they did get to the score sheet at least once.
