Co-hosts Tanzania will be looking to make it two wins in two when they next play Mauritania in the African Nations Championships (Chan). After matchday one, they lead Group B while Mauritania are third. Read on for our prediction of this match below.
Mauritania earned a point in their opener against Madagascar. Aritz Lopez’s men, though lacklustre, drew 0-0 with the Island nation, who were reduced to 10 men in the first half.
Al-Murabitun struggled to break down Madagascar and produced zero chances at goal despite having the lion’s share of possession. The West Africans are making their fourth Chan appearance.
They made the knockout rounds for the first time in the last edition in Algeria.
Tanzania were in rampant form on matchday one and will be looking to ride the momentum and maintain their 100% record. Hemed Suleiman’s men earned a 2-0 victory over Burkina Faso in the capital, Dar Es Salaam, the venue of their next clash with Mauritania.
Goals from Abdul Suleiman and Mohammed Hussein handed the Taifa Stars only their third win at a Chan tournament. Tanzania are playing in their third African Nations Championship and are seeking to make the knockout rounds for the first time.
The hosts, who prepared for the tournament with a 2-1 victory over defending champions Senegal, had over 60% possession against the Burkinabe.

Our Mauritania vs Tanzania Prediction
Mauritania and Tanzania both had positive starts to their Chan campaigns, putting points on the board to strengthen their knockout hopes. Tanzania, however, are the only team in Group B with a win, maximising fully on their co-hosts tag. Both teams flexed their defensive capabilities on matchday one, keeping clean sheets in their respective games.
As they will be eager to maintain their unbeaten tags, we should expect a crunch tie with little wiggle room on opposite ends. Mauritania’s recent attacking struggles and Tanzania’s not-so-free-scoring attack point to a low-scoring match. Our prediction for Mauritania v Tanzania is for under 2.5.
