Guinea – Gambia : Preview & Prediction
It’s hard to believe that Gambia is playing the very first CAN in its history. Tom Saintfiet’s team has been shining since the start of the competition. She managed to finish in second place in Pool F, with seven points. For its entry into the running, Gambia won against Mauritania (1-0). She then hooked Mali (1-1). And on the last day, the Gambians won in the very last minutes against Tunisia (1-0). A success that allows him to secure second place and play a first final phase in the continental competition. For the round of 16, Gambia will challenge Guinea. And it’s clearly not mission impossible to qualify for the rest! Certainly, Guinea will be the favorite of this meeting. The Gambia, however, seems to have the arguments to create the exploit.
Guinea was also able to finish in second place in Group B. Naby Keïta’s teammates took a good option as soon as they entered the competition, winning against Malawi (1-0). They then held in check a selection of Senegal far from its best level (0-0). During the final meeting of the group stage, Guinea could have finished at the top of this group. However, it was beaten by Zimbabwe (2-1). However, Kaba Diawara had chosen to use his best elements. We can therefore have some hopes on the Gambia side. Having nothing to lose in this round of 16, the Gambian selection expects to remain at the level shown in recent times. In this case, Gambia could well reach the quarter-finals for its first CAN.
