Circle October 10, 2025, on your calendar—at 14:00 GMT, the Benjamin Mkapa National Stadium in Dar es Salaam will host a World Cup Qualification Africa encounter that’s more than just another group fixture. Our Sudan vs Mauritania prediction dives into the tactics, form, and betting tips that matter most for punters and fans alike. Whether you’re after the latest odds or simply want to know who’s likely to edge this head to head, here’s everything you need to know, straight from the NerdyTips newsroom.
Let’s set the scene. This is technically a “home” match for Sudan, but with the ongoing civil war forcing them to play abroad, Dar es Salaam becomes neutral ground. Sudan, known for their resilience, sit third in Group B with 12 points from eight matches, having scored eight and conceded five. Their campaign started on a high, unbeaten in six, but recent form has been rocky—two straight losses in September and no goals scored in their last two qualifiers. They haven’t kept a clean sheet in five matches and have lost their last four across all competitions.
Mauritania, meanwhile, are fifth in the group and out of World Cup contention, but don’t let that fool you into thinking they’ll roll over. They recently snapped a long winless streak with a 2-0 victory over Togo and a goalless draw against South Sudan. While their qualifying journey is ending, pride and momentum are still on the line.
With both teams largely injury-free, expect the managers—James Kwesi Appiah for Sudan and Aritz López Garai for Mauritania—to stick to their trusted setups. Appiah’s leadership has been a beacon for Sudanese football, while López Garai is quietly building a more cohesive Mauritanian side.
This Sudan vs Mauritania prediction wouldn’t be complete without a look at their head to head record. In four previous meetings, it’s perfectly balanced: two wins apiece. The latest, in June 2024, saw Sudan win 2-0 away, a result that still stings for Mauritania. Interestingly, in their last four meetings, both teams have never scored in the same match—suggesting a pattern of tight, tactical contests.
Now, let’s get to the numbers. Here’s how our AI sees it:
Our Sudan vs Mauritania prediction for the final score? 0:1 to Mauritania, with the same scoreline at half-time. The stats support a tight, cagey game—one where a single goal could settle it.
While Sudan still have a glimmer of hope for a playoff spot, Mauritania are playing for pride—and perhaps to show they’re more than just group also-rans. The neutral venue may sap some of Sudan’s spirit, but their resilience shouldn’t be underestimated. For punters, the smart money is on a low-scoring match, with Mauritania just edging it. If you’re seeking value, the NG and under 2.5 goals betting tips are well worth considering.
