Chad vs Mali: The Eagles aim for a crucial win

This Wednesday, Mali faces Chad with a single objective: to secure a win and keep their World Cup 2026 qualifying hopes alive. The Eagles, currently fourth in Group I with 12 points, still have a shot at qualification.

On the other side, Chad is enduring a very challenging campaign. With just one point from eight matches and 19 goals conceded, the Sao sit at the bottom of the group. Their only highlight so far remains the surprising draw against Ghana (1-1) in September.

Mali, recently defeated by Ghana (1-0), are determined to bounce back and rediscover the attacking spark they showed against Comoros (3-0). El Bilal Touré and his teammates know that any slip-up could jeopardize their World Cup dreams. The Eagles are clear favorites, but they must remain wary of a resilient Chad side.
