The Mali national football team is set to leave Bamako and travel to Kigali, Rwanda, as preparations intensify ahead of the return-leg encounter against Rwanda\u2019s national team, Amavubi, in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Malian delegation is expected to arrive in Kigali as they prepare for another important meeting with Rwanda, scheduled for Monday, November 17, 2026, at Amahoro Stadium. The match will kick off at 9:00 PM local time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mali will be travelling to Rwanda following their first-leg encounter in Bamako, where the two teams battled in an entertaining match that produced five goals. The contest saw both sides demonstrate their attacking abilities, with Mali eventually securing a 3-2 victory over Amavubi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rwanda initially took the lead and managed to score twice during the match, but the hosts responded on both occasions before finding the winning goal to take all three points in the first meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite suffering a narrow defeat in Bamako, Amavubi will now have an opportunity to respond in front of their home supporters. The Rwandan team will be hoping to use the advantage of playing at Amahoro Stadium to produce a stronger performance and challenge the Malian side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the Rwandan delegation is expected to touch down in Kigali at 11:40 AM as the team returns home from Mali following the first-leg encounter. The players and technical staff will then focus on preparations for Monday\u2019s decisive meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Mali, the objective will be to maintain their advantage from the first leg and demonstrate their strength away from home. However, travelling to Kigali will present a different challenge, especially with the Rwandan supporters expected to turn up in large numbers to encourage their national team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The return fixture is therefore expected to be another competitive encounter, with both teams looking to achieve their respective objectives in the race for qualification for the 2027 AFCON finals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All eyes will now be on Amahoro Stadium on Monday night as Rwanda welcome Mali for the second meeting between the two nations in the qualifying campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
