Prediction for Mali vs. South Sudan

Mali has already qualified for the 2023 AFCON, making this game pointless. They enter the game as significant favorites, however, and have a stronger pedigree and experience at this level.

South Sudan has little to play for and may not represent a significant danger.

Except for an unexpected upset, there should be only one winner here. We believe the home team will win comfortably and keep a clean sheet.

Prediction: Mali will defeat South Sudan 2-0.
