Botswana vs Mauritania Prediction & Betting Tips (15 November)

Not only are Botswana unbeaten in 17 home matches at the top table of the Africa Cup of Nations, but they have also emerged victorious from 12 of these contests, so confidence should be high heading into this encounter. The same cannot be said for Mauritania on their travels, however, as they have lost four times in their last six games, as well as collecting ten points out of 25.

Botswana have proven incredibly consistent when it comes to their involvement in the Africa Cup of Nations fixtures containing under 2.5 goals, with 15 of their last 17 contests subscribing to this particular scoring model. This has also been the case in 17 of the previous 20 Mauritania away games at this level, so a repeat performance is expected.

Both teams have found the net in just four of the most recent 17 Botswana home fixtures at the top table of the Africa Cup of Nations, whilst they have drawn a blank themselves in five of their last six Africa Cup of Nations games overall. As for Mauritania, they have either kept a clean sheet or failed to score in five of their previous six away encounters at this elite level of the domestic game.
