Gabon – Ghana Free Betting Tips
Gabon will be bolstered by the return of at least one of its top two stars, and will seek the result that will allow it to advance to the round of 16 against Ghana on Friday.
The Panthers have been beset by trouble in Cameroon so far, with disputes over unpaid bonuses and squad discontent with the team’s hotel ahead of Monday’s 1-0 win over Comoros, which was achieved without the two stars. affected by COVID, Mario Lemina and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
Lemina has tested negative and will be able to face Ghana in the second match, and Aubameyang also has a chance as he remains asymptomatic.
The addition of one or both of them to a team already buoyed by the victory over Comoros should give Gabon a boost enough to make things tough for Ghana at Stade Omnisport Ahmadou Ahidjo.
Ghana fared poorly in their loss to Morocco, creating little and falling to a knockout blow in the final minutes after a collective concentration failure.
The Black Stars will be desperate to avoid another defeat that pushes them into premature elimination, and could decide that a draw against Gabon is not such a bad result.
Ghana’s recent record in the AFCON finals doesn’t inspire much confidence either, as the four-time tournament winners have only won one of their last seven matches in the competition.
Coupled with Gabon’s track record, who have avoided defeat in their last four qualifying matches, we opted for the Panthers in the double-chance market as our main bet.
GHANA TO WIN – Odds: 2.00
