Bet on Nigeria to Win
Nigeria have been the best team in the Afcon so far. They remain unbeaten in the tournament and are playing some exciting football under Jose Peseiro. Peseiro was under fire before the tournament but is now loved by the nation again after guiding it to the final of Afcon. Ivory Coast struggled in the early stages of the tournament and looked to be headed out early but started improving significantly in the knockout phase.
Ivory Coast will try to play well but in the end, Nigeria are simply stronger and will come out with a narrow win. Victor Osimhen can be expected to potentially score the winning goal.
Bet on Nigeria to Win 1-0
This will be a low scoring game. Both teams will play a very conservative brand of football in order to avoid making mistakes. We can expect both teams to not take risks. In the end, Nigeria are a better team. Importantly, the Super Eagles have Victor Osimhen in their side. Osimhen is capable of unlocking any defence in world football.
In this game, we expect Ivory Coast to make few mistakes. They will up their game for this final, especially as they are playing on home soil but Osimhen is capable of coming up with a goal out of nowhere.
Bet on Nigeria to Keep a Clean Sheet
Nigeria’s defence is solid. Stanley Nwabali has established himself as one of the standout goalkeepers of the tournament. The keeper, who plays his football for Chippa United in South Africa can look forward to earning himself a big club move after the Afcon. We expect Nwabali to keep a clean sheet in this game.
