PREDICTION

In the lead up to AFCON, both Ivory Coast and Ghana were considered the standout favourites to go through as the top two in the group, but there is a real opportunity for both of these sides to lay down a potentially unassailable marker. With Ghana up against hosts Ivory Coast, Cape Verde will qualify with a victory in this one and Mozambique could ensure at least third spot with a victory of their own. As a result, this has the potential to be quite entertaining – especially with six of Mozambique’s last eight games featuring both teams scoring and four of those matches featuring four or five goals.
