Guinea vs Gambia Prediction and Match Preview

Guinea showed a great defensive performance against Cameroon who are one of the favourites to win this competition. However, It was a bad day for Francois Kamano as he received a red card in his first group stage game. Manager Kaba Diawara is happy with his team’s overall performance against Cameroon and he will expect all three points in their next match against Gambia.

On the other hand, Senegal were no match for Gambia as they lost by 3-0 in the first game in Group C. Cardiff City star Ebou Adams received a red card in the first half of the game which disrupted the team’s entire game plan. They are currently at the bottom of the table in Group C.

Recent Meetings

In the 2021 AFCON, Gambia reached the quarter-finals. In the round of 16, they defeated Guinea by 1-0. Musa Barrow scored the winning goal for Gambia in that match. This is going to be the second time both teams will play against each other.

The chances are high that Guinea will secure all three points. They have consistently reached the round of 16 of the AFCON in the previous two editions. Also, they played well against Cameroon on matchday one.

Guinea registered two shots on target when they faced Cameroon last time. It will be difficult for Gambia to break Guinea’s defensive backline as their main player Ebou Adams will miss this game due to a red card.

Guinea vs Gambia Prediction

Gambia have qualified for the AFCON just twice in the last ten years. Moreover, they struggled to perform against Senegal on matchday one. Also, Guinea have reached the round of 16 in the last two editions of the AFCON. Considering all this, the first tip is that Guinea will win this game– the odd for this tip will be at 2.03 odd.

Moving on, our second tip for this game is that over 2.5 goals– the odd for this tip will be priced at 2.54 odd. Guinea scored a goal against Cameroon in the 10th minute of the game. Do note that Cameroon are ranked 68^th in the FIFA ranking.

Also, our correct score for this game is that Guinea 2-1 – the odd for this tip will be at 9.00. Before the first group stage game, Guinea defeated Nigeria by 2-0 in a friendly game. Also, they scored the opening goal against Cameroon last time. Manager Tom Saintfiet will expect Musa Barrow to lead the team in the absence of Ebou Adams.
