Liberia find themselves bottom of Group K as they go into their second match of the 2027 AFCON qualifiers. They will be at home against Mali, a nation sitting 87 places above them. Liberia rarely fail to score, while Mali also have a good attack, and our prediction is BTTS.
Liberia are coming off a losing start in their push for a place at the AFCON finals. They fell 3-1 to Rwanda, away in Kigali on matchday one, and will be looking to recover when they host Les Aigles.
Across their last 11 matches, Liberia have only lost back-to-back matches once. That should inspire some confidence, but the biggest of them will be the fact that they rarely fail to score. Liberia netted six times in the last 10 games.
Mali are unbeaten in three matches against Liberia, winning two. They will be looking at that for encouragement as they seek to go top of this group.
Heading here, they registered a morale-boosting 3-1 win against Cape Verde at home. That was their first win inside 90 minutes for close to a year.
They hadn’t won in regular time in the previous nine matches. Their record against Liberia should offer a lift, but scoring form hasn’t let them down either. Mali only failed to score in half of their last 10 games.

Our Liberia vs Mali Prediction
Liberia had a torrid time away in Rwanda on matchday one and will be happy to return home in this round. The Lone Stars once again proved their attacking consistency with a goal in Kigali, though it isn’t a game they can say they managed well.
They had to finish with a man down and will surely be hoping for better discipline. Mali haven’t been very strong on the road, and this could trouble them. They should at least get to the scoresheet. Our prediction for Liberia v Mali is BTTS.
