Guinea-Bissau vs Nigeria Prediction: the Super Eagles look to secure promotion

It has been a difficult tournament for Guinea Bissau, they have not registered a single point in Group A and after starting the tournament with a match against the host, they now have the three-time winners Nigeria on match day 3. It is in their hands to cause an upset and walk away with all three and Nigeria in tears. Whichever way this goes, it will be a match the entire content will be watching. Especially with the other match in Group A taking place at the same time. 

Here are markets to consider adding to your bet slip...

3 Way – Draw 26/5

Guinea Bissau will be playing for their pride when they face Nigeria on Monday evening. They have played their hearts out but have nothing to show for all their efforts at this point. Nigeria on the other hand played like a house on fire. They had less of the position compared to the ivory coast, they had 1 shot on target and they made it count. 

They were knocking at the door their entire 90 minutes getting 3 shots blocked, ivory coast only had 1 shot blocked their entire 90 minute. Nigeria had more corners with 6 go ivory coast is 5. It was direct football and it worked. It is the same kind of stats they got against Equatorial Guinea in their opening match, the main difference being that they were able to keep a clean sheet against the hosts.

If they are to walk away winners in this one, they will hope that their direct football can get them the goals and their defense can keep a clean sheet. If they are unable to do this, then a draw is the result with odds on a draw set at 26/5.  

Both Teams to Score – Yes 17/10

Nigeria have been involved in games where both teams were on the score sheet in 5 out of their last 7 matches. They have also been the first team to concede in 5 out of their last 7 games. Guinea Bissau have been the first team to concede in 6 out of their last 7 games. both these teams have been prone to conceding goals and failing to keep sheets clean. That is why we think that both teams will find the back of the net. Odds on that happening are set at 17/10.

Anytime Goal Scorer – Victor Osimhen 3/5

Always a goal threat, Victor Osimhen comes in this game with one goal to his name in the CAF Africa Cup of Nations this campaign. He found the back of the net against Equatorial Guinea and failed to do so against Nigeria. The Nigerians understand that nothing, but a win will do, and they will be looking to their star forward to find the back of the net. The odds on him doing so are sitting at 3/5.
