Mali vs Equatorial Guinea live stream: How can I watch AFCON game on TV in UK today?

The final match of the Africa Cup of Nations last 16 takes place tonight when Mali face Equatorial Guinea.

Mali are very much the favourites to come out on top, having topped their group, and they are yet to taste defeat at the tournament.

A win over Tunisia got their AFCON campaign off to the perfect start, and a draw against Gambia and then a comfortable victory over Mauritania saw them safely through to the knockout stages.

Equatorial Guinea will certainly not be intimidated though. They’ve only qualified for the tournament twice in the past and they’ve made the most of it each team, reaching the quarter-finals in 2012 and then finishing fourth in 2015.

They’re in good form too, having ended Algeria’s 35-match unbeaten run on their way to qualifying for the last 16, and have every chance of continuing their run and setting up a quarter-final against Senegal.

Here’s all you need to know about how to follow the match live.

Where to watch Mali vs Equatorial Guinea:

TV channel: The game will be broadcast on Sky Sports Premier League, with coverage beginning at 6.55pm GMT.

Live stream: Sky Sports subscribers will be able to watch the game through the Sky Go App.
