Tunisia hosts Egypt in a meaningless game in the 2015 African Cup of Nations qualifications. Tunisia is already qualified, Egypt will go to the playoffs.
Tunisia played great in these qualies … 11 points, undefeated, just one goal allowed. This is a really solid team and we also saw them before the World Cup in a frienly in Belgium where they played excellent and only lost 1-0 in the last minutes by a keeper mistake. Hosts have a rock solid defense which is the fundation of their team … they are coming however after 0-0 draw in Botswana, their first poor game in a long time. Tunisia has 1 point over Senegal and they need to win in order to top the group … as Senegal will probably win vs. Botswana.
Bet on Tunisia vs. Egypt with the best African Cup of Nations odds at William Hill.
Egypt with just 6 points has been a big disappointment again, they have a very good team but can`t play together. They will go to the playoffs from the third place and hope to play better there. Visitors are coming after a 1-0 loss to Senegal at home and they lost all three matches vs. Tunisia and Egypt … only beat Botswana (twice). Their offense is atrocious and it will be very hard to score vs. Tunisia.
Maybe there will be a couple of changes in the lineups but nothing major … Egypt will probably shuffle the team more.. Tunisia actually has more at stake than Egypt, they want to finish 1st in the group. After the Botswana draw I do not think Tunisia can play two poor games in a row so I expect them to go out and defeat a team that is under performing big time. Egypt is well known to concede games where they have no motivation, they are not too good on the road. Probably they will not score and Tunisia will make use of their chemistry and home court advantage (key in Africa) to get a win and the 1st place. My tips is Tunisia to win. Correct score prediction: Tunisia – Egypt 1-0.
