Tunisia - Mali: Form Analysis
Tunisia will be under immense pressure coming into this game following their opening day 1-0 loss to Namibia. This is a game they have to win to keep their chances of progressing alive. In their two meetings with Mali at AFCON, Tunisia failed to coin a win and that is a run they will be keen to end here. Tunisia however did deny Mali the chance to proceed to the 2022 World Cup courtesy of a slim win in the playoffs back in 2022. In recent years these two nations have met frequently, with their matches characterized by tight defences and low scores. All their last five meetings ended with under 2.5 goals. the most recent producing a 0-0 draw. While Tunisia’s loss to Namibia was a shock, they haven't beaten any big opponents in their recent matches. They went into that game with a four-game unbeaten run all with clean sheets, and having won three. All their last four matches produced under 2.5 goals and they failed to score in two of their last three matches. Their run at AFCON has over the recent appearances been dismal. The Carthage Eagles have six losses in the last eight AFCON matches.
Mali didn’t miss a step in their 2-0 win over South Africa in the opening game of this group. Another such outcome will send them to the knockouts with a game to spare. That will be their target coming into this game. Les Aigles have done well in their recent matches and will come into this one very confident. A run of eight matches unbeaten, and the need to avenge their loss in the World Cup playoffs will definitely drive the West Africans. Goals from Hamari Traore and Lassine Sinayoko six minutes apart earned them the win over South Africa. The result also earned them their first clean sheet in five matches and they will look to build on it here. The west Africans have seven wins in their last eight matches, with a prolific scoring run heading into this game. They’ve scored two or more goals in seven of their last 10 matches. At AFCON, Mali haven't lost inside 90 minutes in their last five matches and have three wins in five AFCON games. One of those was their opening game at the 2022 edition, which was marred with refereeing controversy in a comical turn of events.

Tunisia & Mali Squad Analysis
The pressure for Tunisia will not ease coming into this game sweating over the fitness of Yassine Khenissi. The veteran forward picked an injury in the early stages of their game against Namibia and was replaced by Haythem Jouini. Needing a win here, there could be reinforcements in attack and starting Naim Sliti could be an option. Sliti could partner Jouini upfront after being unused on Match Day 1. From the Mali camp, there are reports that Yves Bissouma is down with illness after featuring for 58 minutes in the opening encounter. Unconfirmed reports also indicate Moussa Diarra is ill and if so, Eric Chelle will be forced to make adjustments. Boubacar Traore of Wolves came on late against South Africa and will be hoping to get a starting berth here.

Our Tunisia vs Mali Prediction
Mali come into this game on a strong run and a good one at AFCON too, which involves a win over Tunisia. With an eight-game unbeaten run, they will be favorites in this. Tunisia will be under a lot of pressure to win this, which could leave them exposed in crucial pockets. The North Africans don’t have a strong run at AFCON either and that could come to haunt them here. Our prediction for Tunisia v Mali is for Mali to win the game.
