Central African Republic vs Mauritania prediction
Giving away two penalties did not help Central African Republic as they went down 4-2 at the hands of Burkina Faso in their first group game of the tournament. This leaves them with work to do if they are to progress through and gaining a victory over Mauritania is absolutely vital to their chances. Mauritania are also without a win in Group B, but they have at least gained a point after two matches.
Whilst Mauritania deserve credit for being tough to break down, conceding just one goal so far, they have still yet to get on the scoresheet themselves and with three points desperately needed from their perspective here, some of that defensive stability may need to be sacrificed in order to find an extra layer of creativity and more of a goal threat going forward.
This should lead to a more open game than perhaps one would expect between these two nations and backing over 2.5 goals is a move worth making.
Central African Republic vs Mauritania tip: Over 2.5 goals
