We said: Mali 2-1 Congo

While Mali have struggled for results in recent outings, they will fancy their chances against an opposing side who have managed just one win from 11 outings. The Eagles have won four of their last five home matches and we predict they will maintain this fine run and come away with all three points on home turf once again. Read more.
