The time’s nearly upon us for International Friendlies action on Thursday as Iran play Mali.
Our full set of predictions, statistics and match poll for Iran v Mali can be seen below - as well as up-to-date odds.
Iran will want to continue from where they left off last time out with a 3-1 International Friendlies success over Gambia.
For Iran, the goals were scored by Ramin Rezaeian (59') and Mehdi Taremi (68'). Omar Colley (42') was the scorer for Gambia.
Their most recent results highlight the fact that not much more can be done by the Iran backline. Iran have been miserly, resulting in the number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their last six matches standing at 3. Such a pattern isn’t assured to be carried forward into this next game, of course.
In their previous fixture, Mali drew 0-0 in the International Friendlies tie with Russia.
It has become apparent that Mali have failed to get amongst the goals in their past 6 encounters, contributing the unsatisfactory return of just 3. In those fixtures, Les Aigles have also seen the collective goal aggregate of opposing teams equal 4.
We feel that in this game, Mali have enough to get a goal against this Iran team, although that possibly won’t quite be enough to avoid defeat.
Our selection here is for a narrow 2-1 victory for Iran at the end of the match. There shouldn’t be much in it, either way.
