Betting Tips

Morocco will be opening their Group F campaign with a test against East Africa’s lone representative in the tournament Tanzania with DR Congo taking on Zambia in the other tie of the group.
TopbetsKE picks the top five betting fixtures you can place your money on plus extra two tips for our readers.
Morocco are one of the favourites heading into this year’s Africa Cup of Nations. Having made history at the 2022 World Cup by becoming the first African side to reach the semi-final stage, plenty is expected of the Atlas Lions. Only once before have they lifted the AFCON title and that came way back in 1976 but now feels like the right time.
Tanzania, despite being easy on the eye at times, lack much in the way of firepower and look a favourable opponent to start your campaign against.
Team News
Bayern Munich defender Noussair Mazraoui is a doubt having carried an injury into the tournament, meaning Attiat Allah will likely deputise at left-back. Ayoub El Kaabi and Tarik Tissoudali are options to cover and compete with Youssef En-Nesyri, who starred at the World Cup.
English-based Haji Mnoga, Tarryn Allarakhia and Anthony Ben Starkie will be hoping to feature for Tanzania.
Verdict
Such was their showing at the World Cup, it would be a major shock to see the Atlas Lions fail to get their campaign off with a win.
Tip: Morocco 3-0 Tanzania✅

DR Congo v Zambia
DR Congo are ranked the 67th best footballing nation in the world and the two time champions will be eager to prove they are still a team to reckon with considering they’ve never contested a final match since their last triumph in 1974 when they were still known as Zaire.
Zambia has won the tournament once and missed three editions of the tournament since they were last crowned champion and just like their opponent will be looking to re-establish themselves as competitors.
Line Ups
DR Congo: Bertaud, Mbemba, Batubinsika, Rocky, Tshibola, Wissa, Kayembe, Silas, Meshack, Bakambu, Banza
Zambia: Mulenga, Dominic, Chepeshi, Kabwe, Mphande, Banda, Chaiwa, Chilufya, Lameck, Daka, Sakala
Verdict
This will be a close call as both teams feel that the winner of the tie might have a huge chance of making it to the next round of the competition. While Morocco are favourites, neither of them cant underrate Tanzania who are also ready and waiting for the duo in their last two group games.
