Our Free Picks for Equatorial Guinea vs Ivory Coast
AFCON 2022 fixture between Equatorial Guinea and Ivory Coast is a highly anticipated game. Will Ivory Coast reinstate its place in continental football by going as far as possible in this competition? It is safe to say that based in recent performances, Ivory Coast is among the favourites to progress to playoffs in AFCON 2022. Our analysis for the best two predictions above is as follows:
First half winner: Ivory Coast @18/25 (1.72)
Our pick to win this fixture is Ivory Coast. They have some of the best players in the AFCON 2022 tournament. From defenders, midfielders to strikers plying their trades in Europe’s elite five top flights, a more experienced Ivory Coast should outplay the less experienced Equatorial Guinea. Most Equatorial Guinea players in this competition are home-based so, we don’t think they will create any trouble for players like Zaha, Pepe and many others who will be representing Ivory Coast in the AFCON 2022 tournament. Backing Ivory Coast to win the firs-half of this match comes with a good price.
Total goals: Under 2.5 @ 63/100 (1.63)
While Ivory Coast are the favourite in this game, they will have to sweat for points somehow. Most of the games played in AFCON 2022 have yielded fewer than three goals and this looks like a low scoring game. Equatorial Guinea has a fairly good defence and with no defeat in the last five games, three of which were clean sheets, fewer than three goals in this match is a good pick.
