Mali’s big chance. After they drew 0-0 with Nigeria now Mali has its it fait in its own hands, and a draw here is more than enough to secure qualification. This is the reason why odds are priced really low on the draw and lwo on the under bet. Two big blows for the Mali squad. Their best defensive midfielders, Mamadou Diarra and Mohamed Sissoko are unavailable and it gives this match a totally different perspective, as if Mali can continue producing those good defensive displays without them, and my guess is that they won’t.
