Nigeria vs Guinea-Bissau Prediction & Betting Tips - AFCON
by Daniel Ngulu in AFCON Prediction
Nigeria and Guinea Bissau will face off on the third Match Day in the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers. The two nations occupy the top spots in Group A, with hosts Nigeria leading with six points while Guinea Bissau have four points. Three straight defeats ahead of this game have been eye opening for Nigeria and against Guinea Bissau they will get their sternest test in this group. Given, the opposition Nigeria have faced ahead of this game is tough, and they should do well here. In their last outing, Nigeria were thrashed 4-0 by Portugal in a friendly game, failing to score in their second straight game while conceding two or more goals in the third straight match. In their opening two matches in this group however, Nigeria scored 12 goals, thrashing Sao Tome 10-0 and Sierra Leone 2-1. In their last 13 matches in AFCON qualification, Nigeria are unbeaten and in their last five they have four clean sheets, conceding just one goal.
Guinea Bissau are coming into this game without a win in their last three matches. Their most recent game, a 0-0 draw with Gambia was preceded by a 3-1 loss at home to Gabon in a friendly match. They have one clean sheet only in the last five matches, that came in the 0-0 draw with Gambia. The same is the case in their last five AFCON qualification matches, their only clean sheet coming in the 3-0 win over Congo in 2021. They have gone undefeated in the last four matches in AFCON qualification and facing the toughest opponent in this group, the target will be to go unbeaten in five. In the last four matches in AFCON qualification Guinea Bissau have scored two or more goals but will not be so happy at their performance against Sierra Leone, where they let slip a 2-0 lead to draw 2-2. In that game, Sana Gomes was also sent off.
