Prediction published on 23/01/2017, 00:06  by in AFCON Predictions

After a 1-0 loss that effectively sent them crashing out of the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations, Uganda are booked to play Mali in their last group match, which at this point serves as a formality. The Ugandans, who lost 1-0 to Ghana in their first match, held their own against the Pharaohs and were just unfortunate to concede on the 88th minute through Abdalla Said. Mali, their next opponents are in the race by the hold of string, and the only way they can progress to the next round is by beating the Cranes by at least three goals and hope that Egypt beat Ghana in the other group match. Serbian coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic, will be looking to bow out in a dignified manner by winning the final match and will, therefore, give the Malians a tough time. Geoffrey Massa will be lead the strike force as Mamelodi Sundowns goalkeeper Denis Onyango, who has served the national team for more than ten years will be standing guard in goal. Mali go into the match after a 1-0 loss to Ghana and a 0-0 draw with Egypt. Alain Giresse, the coach will depend on Crystal Palace midfielder Bakary Sako and forward Abdoulay Diaby of Club Brugge to guide his team to victory.
