**Jordan vs Mali: International Friendly Preview**
Jordan and Mali will face off in an international friendly match on Tuesday. This encounter forms part of both teams’ preparations for their upcoming continental tournaments.
Jordan come into this match on the back of three straight defeats, having won only once in their last five matches since September. The match against Mali will be their first-ever meeting. Recently, Jordan played another African side, Tunisia, who edged them 3-2 at the same venue. Known as The Chivalrous Ones, Jordan are working to get their house in order ahead of their participation in the 2025 Arab Cup in Qatar next month. Jordan will open their campaign against the United Arab Emirates on December 3, approximately two weeks from now. It remains unclear whether the team will make adequate improvements before the tournament kicks off.
On the other hand, Mali arrive in good form, having won their last two matches, scoring six goals in the CAF 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. Mali have already qualified for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, set to begin next month in Morocco. The friendly against Jordan in Tunisia presents a valuable opportunity for Mali to fine-tune their preparations ahead of AFCON. Les Aigles have recorded four victories in their last seven matches this year, along with one draw and two losses. After failing to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Mali have fully shifted their focus to the upcoming continental tournament.
While Jordan may not be an ideal sparring partner, they could still provide a good test for Mali ahead of their big competition.
