Form going in

Mauritius have drawn two and lost three of their last five recent matches, failing to score in four of them. Their most recent outing ended in a 0-1 defeat, following a goalless draw before that. Sri Lanka have won two, drawn one and lost two of their last five. They beat Turkmenistan 1-0 before losing the return 1-2, then suffered a 4-0 defeat before bouncing back with a 3-1 victory in their most recent fixture.

What the fixture offers

The match offers both sides a chance to build momentum outside competitive fixtures. Mauritius will be looking to end a run of no wins in their last five outings, while Sri Lanka arrive with the confidence of a three-goal win behind them. Friday's meeting is the first between the two nations for which results are recorded, giving neither side a historical edge to lean on.
