Stade Malien vs Diables Noirs Prediction: The home side are well-experienced compared to their opponent

On Sunday, Malian heavyweight will lock horns against Diables Noirs at the Stade 26 Mars Stadium. The hosts secured the maximum points on the road in the reverse leg, and we expect them to repeat the same here. 

Stade Malien (Mali)

Les Blanc's head here with a commanding (1-3) win on the road against Diables Noirs. Despite having just 40% of the ball, they were more effective in front of goals as three of their eight shots at goal found their way into the net. Stade Maleien took advantage of their opponent's defensive lapses when they scored three times before the break to win their opening game. 

Despite the win and being in the second spot on the log, Stade Malien must secure the maximum points here to stand a chance of advancing. 

Stade Malien are not a novice in this competition, after winning the CAF Confederation title in 2009, and will be confident of advancing to the knockout phase.

The Black Devils secured their first point in this competition after settling for a stalemate against a strong RSB Berkane. They have now won a point and lost three times since this competition began. 

The visitors lack the experience to compete with the top guns in this competition and will have to try again next season.
