Match Result – Gabon

Gabon are the higher-ranked team out of these two. Gabon are ranked 82nd in the world while Mauritania are ranked 116th. We do not expect Mauritania to repeat that strong performance against a much stronger opponent like Gabon. Their defense is strong and their home performances have been incredible lately. The team has not lost in seven consecutive games in which they were considered a host.

Both Teams To Score – Yes

We expect an incredible and thrilling match between these two national teams and after their incredible performances in the first round, we expect to see at least one goal per team. Even though Mauritania have been losing again and again on the road over the past year, it seems like the team has improved and they should be able to score a goal. As for Gabon, the last time they failed to score as hosts was in 2020, and in most games since then, they scored more than 1 goal.
