Cameroon vs Guinea prediction 15.01.2024

• Competition: Africa Cup of Nations
• Date: Monday, 15th January 2024
• Kickoff: 17:00 UK/18:00 CET
• Venue: Charles Konan Banny Stadium (Yamoussoukro)

Cameroon, boasting five titles, is the second most successful team in the history of the African Cup of Nations, surpassed only by Egypt with seven titles. While it may seem unlikely for them to vie for the title this year, the African Cup of Nations is known for its unpredictability, and Cameroon could potentially spring a surprise.

Last year, Cameroon performed poorly, securing only two victories in nine matches. Recently, they continued their winless streak in a friendly game against Zambia, which ended in a 1-1 draw.

Thus far, the African Cup of Nations trophy has been won by 15 teams, but Guinea is not one of them. The furthest they’ve gone was reaching the finals in the 1976 tournament. In this group, it seems doubtful that Guinea will secure one of the top two positions, though they could likely manage to end up in third place. They are hoping that this will be sufficient to advance them to the next phase as one of the most successful third-placed teams.

In recent months, Guinea has demonstrated solid performance, losing just one out of their last six matches. They recently won a friendly game against Nigeria, 2-0, as their final preparation for the tournament. This victory is sure to boost the confidence of Kaba Diawara’s team as they gear up for their match against Cameroon.

Cameroon vs Guinea pick: Under 2.5 goals

Cameroon has managed to net only five goals in their recent five matches, while Guinea has slightly outperformed them with six goals in their past five games. Considering this, a bet of under 2.5 goals seems most prudent for this match.
