A spot in the Africa Cup of Nations semis will be at stake when Mali and Senegal face each other at Stade Ibn Batouta. As Senegal have been impressive at the tournament in Morocco so far, our prediction leans toward a 2-0 away win. The Eagles survived Tunisia in the last 16, beating the Eagles of Carthage on penalties. However, Woyo Coulibaly is banned for Fridayâs game, which is the main reason why home win should not be considered. It has to be noted that Mali had only 1 shot on target in the clash with Tunisia. Senegal, on the other hand, are seen as one of the main favourites to win the 2025 AFCON title. Both Ilay Camara and Assane Diao are sidelined with injuries, but boss Pape Thiaw can count on key players for the Mali game, including Sadio Mane and Iliman Ndiaye. As the Lions of Teranga have been averaging 2.75 goals per game at the tournament, Away Team Over 1.5 bet seems appealing.
