Guinea vs Eritrea Prediction
Guinea trail South Africa by three points in Group D, so they desperately need to beat Eritrea to keep the pressure on Bafana Bafana. Their opponents, meanwhile, have picked up just one point. A late equaliser denied Eritrea victory against Kenya, and they were then thrashed 0-5 by South Africa.
Guinea are a solid outfit and you would expect them to dominate much of this game. However, they have been dealt a huge blow by the expected absence of star striker Serhou Guirassy, who picked up a thigh injury while playing for Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League.
Without Guirassy's physical and goalscoring presence, there is a gaping hole in Guinea's front line. Even so, they should still have enough to edge out a weak Eritrea side. Don't expect a high-scoring contest though, with under 3.5 goals scored likely.
Guinea vs Eritrea Tip: Guinea to win and under 3.5 goals
