Football Picks – Africa Cup of Nations

Gabon – Niger
Gabon will be looking to start the ACN on a high just like their fellow hosts from Equatorial Guinea did by winning on Saturday, and I think they’ll be more than pleased with any kind of narrow win. If they win at all that is.

Their last 2 friendlies ended 0-0 and only 1 of their last 9 matches have seen more than 2 goals. 2 years ago they opened the ACN i Angola by beating Cameroon 1-0. Let’s go for a similar goalshy outcome.

Marocco – Tunisia
2 Northafrican rival also looking to start of on a good note and both a so experienced Championship-participants that they know how important it is not to lose their first match.

Marocco has drawn 3 of their last 7 matches and 2 of the last 4 meetings between these 2 has ended without a winner.
