AFCON - Group D

Final matches in the group stage tomorrow morning and I like Mali to get the job done against Botswana. Botswana have been really poor so far and whilst Mali haven't exactly been at their best I think they have a lot more to offer and should really improve tomorrow. Not expecting Botswana to concede 6 again but look for Maiga or Diabate to score and the win will be enough to see Mali through to the quarters.

In the other game Guinea would need to beat Ghana to progress or get a draw and hope Mali lose. Whilst Ghana only need a draw to go through and top the group. So Guinea really will be going for this game and will be full of confidence after their 6-1 win although the scoreline was maybe a little flattering as they were up 3-1 when Botswana went down to 10 men. Anyway I think that result has added a lot of value to Ghana in this matchup as they currently sit at $2 to win the game. They don't have a lot of selection issues to worry about with both John Mensah and Vorsah back from suspension which should help their defense. But the question is will they rotate their squad? I am finding it difficult to gather info on this but regardless I really do think they will be too strong and like the Ivory Coast will look to keep that winning momentum going right through the tournament. Very confident here.

Ghana @ $2 (sportsbet or sportingbet) for 5 units
