The upcoming match at the Stade de Yamoussoukro between Guinea and Gambia is set to be an exciting one. Both teams are looking to secure a victory and take a step towards the AFCON knockout stage, which would be a big success.

Before Betting on Guinea vs. Gambia

Guinea kicked off their Nations Cup campaign with a 1-1 draw against Cameroon. Mohamed Bayo netted early on, bringing Guinea a lead, but the team couldn’t keep it until the end. One of the reasons for that was their captain, Francois Kamano, who received a red card, leaving his teammates to play with a player fewer on the field for 45 minutes. 

Overall looking, Guinea’s form is not that bad at all. They have only lost one game out of their last seven across all competitions, which is a very good result, considering all the circumstances. This team has several very good players, like Naby Keita and Serhou Guirassy.

On the other hand, Gambia had a tough start to their tournament, suffering a 3-0 defeat against Senegal in their group opener. Their performance was lackluster, conceding an early goal and receiving a red card during the first half. Their defense further crumbled in the second half, leading to two additional goals against them.

The Scorpions have been on a downward spiral, losing their last three games and winning only two out of their previous nine, counting in all the competitions. It was evident that Tom Saintfiet’s team wasn’t in perfect form and lacked chemistry on the field.

The last sentence here is the reason why we are backing Guinea to win. We’ve seen much more from them than Gambia in the opening round, so betting on anything else wouldn’t be a smart choice.
