Egyptians to finally secure their first victory
The 2024 AFCON hasn’t quite gone as Egypt would have hoped for. A draw vs Mozambique ended up being a good result, as Mo Salah’s 96th-minute penalty spared their blushes.
They were expected to dominate that match, just as they were against Ghana. The 2-2 draw excited the neutrals but the manner of the goals conceded will have annoyed Egypt, as would the potential injury to Mo Salah.
That will need to change if they are to go far in this tournament. Yet against one of the lowest ranked teams in the tournament, their strike force should have too much.
We’re kicking off our selections with an Egypt win which is priced generously considering the gulf between the two nations.
Bet 1: Egypt to win @ 1.87 with Bet9ja
Pharaohs to fire an early goal
One thing which certainly hasn’t been lacking from Egypt’s games is goals. If we are to secure more winners, it seems sensible to back plenty of action and a goal inside 30 minutes is an attractive second bet.
Egypt got off to a flyer against Mozambique, opening the scoring inside two minutes. Cape Verde also put their stamp on their game against Ghana, scoring inside 17 minutes.
With three goals in that match with Ghana, and with Egypt scoring four and conceding four in their opening matches, two dodgy defences will be tested with so much on the line.
Mo Salah limped off with an injury but was all smiles as he walked onto the team coach. Whether the Liverpool forward takes to the field here or not, we can expect goals.
Bet 2: Score 30 minutes yes @ 1.98 with Bet9ja
Underdogs to make life difficult
It won’t be easy for Egypt. As mentioned, they have conceded four goals in their opening two matches. That simply cannot continue if they are to challenge for the trophy.
All that might change against Cape Verde, who might struggle against far superior opponents. However, that doesn’t mean they won’t find the back of the net.
Cape Verde dominated against Ghana and fully deserved their victory. However, it was a mistake from the Black Stars which allowed them to win in the 91st minute. Without that, they would have finished with just one goal.
Egypt aren’t bulletproof with their defence, but they’ll have analysed Ghana’s performances and will look to learn from their first two matches. Cape Verde are capable of causing issues, but one goal looks likely and is priced generously.
Bet 3: Cape Verde to score one goal exact @ 2.50 with Bet9ja
Goals galore as Pharaohs prevail
Everything points towards Egypt claiming their first victory, but with Cape Verde to prove an unlikely goal threat. Adding goals to a 1X2 pick completes our fourth tip.
If Cape Verde are to find the back of the net once again, the Pharaohs will need to do exactly what they have in their first two matches – score at least twice.
With so much on the line for both teams, expect a fast-paced, frantic match with plenty of drama at both ends of the pitch.
However, Egypt has quality in the final third which should see them come out on top, and by adding goals to the bet, we can sign off Group B with a winner at a great price.
Bet 4: Egypt to win and over 2.5 goals @ 3.60 with Bet9ja
