In an evenly split Group E, with all four teams still with a chance of making it into the knockout stages, third-placed Namibia, with three points, will take on group leaders Mali, who have four points in a fight potentially for the top spot in Group E on Wednesday at 17:00 GMT.
Key Highlights
Namibia have a win and loss from their opening two matches in Group E. They opened their campaign with a narrow 0-1 win against Tunisia before losing to South Africa in a 4-0 loss last time out.
The loss to South Africa ended a run of three unbeaten matches, with two wins and a draw, including wins against Sao Tome and Principe (0-2) and Tunisia (0-1) and a 0-0 draw against Ghana in the pre-tournament international clashes.
Mali is on the verge of sealing its qualification to the knockout stages of AFCON in Ivory Coast after winning one and drawing the other of its opening two matches.
Bet hereMali opened their tournament with a convincing 2-0 win over South Africa before they were held to a 1-1 draw by Tunisia. Their four points could be enough to allow them to progress to the knockouts. However, they will be fighting for the top spot when they go one-on-one against Namibia on Wednesday.
Injury Report
Neither side has reported significant injury worries ahead of their one-on-one clash on Wednesday.

Mali is the football pick to win this match. They will win and seal the top spot in Group E ahead of the knockout stage.
