Morocco vs Mali Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.44 expected goals for Morocco and 0.87 for Mali, a combined total of 2.31. That distribution gives Morocco the largest share of the 1X2 market at 50%, with the draw at 27%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 41% for over 2.5 goals and 44% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 14%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 50% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Head-to-head

Head-to-head history is temporarily unavailable. The prediction is unaffected — it is built from current form, home and away performance, goals data and competition statistics.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Morocco win, at 50.3%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 44% and over 2.5 goals at 41%.

A 50% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
