Guinea-Bissau v Nigeria

Nigeria are paying 1.68 to win, which represents superb value given that they have won both of their matches so far at the tournament, dominating them from start to finish.

Kelechi Iheanacho and co. have been impressive for Nigeria at this tournament and they show no signs of letting up.

Egypt v Sudan

Despite the presence of Mohamed Salah in their squad, Egypt’s attack has been blunt so far at the Africa Cup of Nations.

After a 1-0 defeat to Nigeria, they nevertheless bounced back with a 1-0 victory over Guinea-Bissau in their most recent game. Salah was predictably the goalscorer.

Against Sudan, a team roughly as strong as their most recent opponents, the Pharaohs are likely to pick up another low-scoring win.
