Burkina Faso vs Mauritania Prediction: Africa Cup of Nations Match on 16.01.2024

Burkina Faso will go one-on-one against Mauritania at the Stade Bouake on Tuesday in the opening clash for the two sides in Group D, with kickoff slated for 14:00 GMT.

Key Highlights

Burkina Faso warmed up for the AFCON kick off with a 1-2 win against DR Congo at the Baniyas Stadium. This match demonstrated Burkina’s potency at the attacking end while highlighting the need to tighten their defense heading into the tournament.

In their last five international outings, Burkina Faso has shown good form, winning three, drawing once, and losing once. The loss came in the friendly clash with Iran, which ended in a 2-1 defeat.

Mauritania has been in poor form heading into the AFCON tournament. In their last five international outings, they have won just once. They are winless in their last four matches, drawing twice and losing twice.

The only win in this run of form came in October 2023, when they prevailed 201 against Madagascar. After this win, they lost two consecutive matches against Burkina Faso (1-2) and against DR Congo (2-1), before consecutive barren draws against South Sudan and Tunisia.

The head-to-head between the two sides shows that they have played each other 4 times since 2018, with Burkina Faso winning twice, Mauritania winning once, and the other ending in a 1-1 draw.
