Africa Cup of Nations match preview: Equatorial Guinea - Zambia

Written by: Saso Published: 29-01 09:26:54

Maximal effect so far

Possible starting line up: Danilo, Alvarez, Da Gracia, Kamissoko, Doe, Bolado, Juvenal, Fidjeu-Tazemeta, Konate, Randy, Balboa. Equatorial Guinea have a maximal effect so far in the group A. I must admit I expect that. The main reason is that Equatorial Guinea is co-host of this African Cup of the Nations. It is an important advantage, no doubt about that. They won 1:0 against Libia in the first round and 2:1 against favorite Senegal in the second. That means they already secured the knock-out stage.

Crucial match

Possible starting line up: Mweene, N. Mulenga, Himonde, Kasonde, Musonda, C. Mulenga, F. Katongo, Katongo, Mbesuma, Chansa, Mayuka. This is a crucial match for Zambia. They won 2:1 against Senegal in the first round and then played 1:1 with Libia. That is why they need a point here to secure the progress. Zambia is very successful national team. Not many people know they had two silver medals on the previous tournaments, once in 1974 and again in 1994.

I think the hosts will win

The bookmakers are expecting a draw here. And it is true the draw means a progress for both teams. But I was waiting for some late news. And I think the hosts will try to win. First of all, the coach Gílson Paulo announced he will play with the strongest team. The best strikers Randy and Balboa will lead the attack. Both have one goal scored so far. Second, the Equatorial Guinea authorities have promised cash reward in order to motivate the players. The co-hosts are set to receive additional money if they are able to beat Zambia on their way to the quarter-final. And third reason, the home fans. There were more then 35.000 fans on the first two matches, I am sure Nuevo Estadio de Malabo will be full today. This is the first match there, the first two matches were played on Estadio de Bata. I am sure the fans in Malabo will like to see a victory. Still, I am going with minimal stake as I am afraid both national teams can fix the match.
