Couple of dogs for tomorrows games:

Benin +1.75 vs. Ivory Coast @ 2.01 @ Pinnacle (1 unit) (1-4) LOST -1

Mali +0.5 vs. Nigeria @ 1.96 @ Pinnacle (1 unit) (0-0) WON +0.96

1-1 (-0.04)
African Nations Cup : 4-4-2 (+1.46)
YTD: 8-14-4 (-3.77 units)

Thanks MA. Wish I'd followed your picks on Ivory Coast, those hit with ease! Mali/Nigeria produce the first goalless match in the tournament. No surprise as Mali's midfield features Sissoko and Diarra. Nigeria are rubbish. Clueless tactically, and no wide players.

Cameroon vs. Zambia - OVER 2.5 @ 2.00 @ Bet365 (1 unit)

Wanted to take this earlier at much better odds but wasn't around. Still a decent choice nonetheless. Cameroon conceded 4 against an excellent Egypt side. They were generally outclassed. Their defence aren't the quickest, and the centre of midfield isn't too creative. They're decent in the wide positions and in Eto'o they can get goals. They can't afford to lose this match, and a draw will leave qualification out of their hands. Zambia were solid against Sudan but should have conceded a few. Sudan generally outplayed them. The Zambian attack featured some real livewires, and I reckon their pace could trouble Cameroon. They need to get something out of this game as they will not relish having to seal qualification against Egypt.

This is obviously not the Nigerian side that so impressed me at the world cup level...Mali just might hold serve in their final group game.

I am in complete agreement with the Cameroon over. Let's hope for a nice sloppy 3-2 match...

good luck R!

MA, over and Cameroon comes in very easily.

Thanks for the comments Leafsfan. Tough loss for us as Blackburn missed an early penalty.

Looking at the Under, and also a possible play on Ivory Coast depending on team news.

Thanks Magic32. :toast:

John, - the under and Benin +2 are getting pounded right now. Under 3 was at about +110 a couple hours ago. Best I can find is -101 @ 10Bet. I'm strongly considering it... will decide in the next 5 minutes.

Found a great line. UNder 3 @ +107 at Fonbet (slow moving bookie, usually low limits, but decent on this match)

Benin vs. Nigeria - UNDER 3 @ 2.07 (1 unit)
