Morocco vs. Mali: Head-to-Head History Favors Atlas Lions with 9 Wins, 5 Draws

The Moroccan national team is preparing to face its Malian counterpart this Friday in the second round of the Africa Cup of Nations group stage.

Historically, Morocco and Mali have met 20 times. The Atlas Lions have emerged victorious in 9 matches, while Mali has secured 6 wins, with 5 encounters ending in a draw.

Morocco boasts an impressive record in its confrontations with Mali, including their largest victory, a 6-0 triumph in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers in Rabat. The national team has also kept clean sheets in their last three matches against Mali, securing two wins and one draw.

Mali's last victory over Morocco dates back to a 1-0 win in a friendly match in 2006. This sets a significant challenge for the ambitious Malian side to rebalance the historical head-to-head record.

The match between Morocco and Mali is scheduled for this Friday at 21:00 GMT+1, and will take place at Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Rabat.
