Guinea Bissau are set to host The Gambia National CHAN team in their return friendly international match slated for tomorrow, Saturday 8 July 2017, in Bissau.
The
home-based Scorpions were held to a goalless stalemate by the Wild Dogs in the
first friendly international match played at the Independence Stadium in Bakau
last Saturday.
The
Gambia will use the match against Guinea Bissau tomorrow in Bissau to prepare
themselves for their crucial 2018 CHAN qualifiers first leg clash at home to
Mali on 15 July 2017, at the Independence Stadium in Bakau.
The
winner between The Gambia and Mali will face either Liberia or Mauritania in
the final round of the qualifiers for a place in the 2018 CHAN tournament to be
hosted in Kenya.
It
would be recalled that The Gambia failed to qualify for the 2016 CHAN
tournament after losing to Senegal 4-1 on aggregate, 3-1 in the first leg
played in Dakar and 1-0 in the return leg played in Banjul.
