A three-match accumulator featuring Africa Cup of Nations 2027 qualifying fixtures has been selected by betting expert and Cameroonian journalist Arthur Wandji, with matches involving Nigeria, Egypt and Morocco on 13 November.
Nigeria v Tanzania – 13 November, 16:00 GMT
Betting option: Nigeria to score first (odds: 1.48)
Nigeria welcome Tanzania to Uyo having taken three points from their opening two qualifying matches. The Super Eagles beat Madagascar 2-1 before suffering a 3-0 defeat by Guinea-Bissau.
Ademola Lookman, Alex Iwobi and Akor Adams are among the attacking options available to Nigeria. Adams scored the equaliser in the country’s most recent friendly, against Russia.
Nigeria will, however, be without injured pair Victor Osimhen and Samuel Chukwueze. Frank Onyeka remains doubtful.
Tanzania began their campaign with a 2-0 defeat by Guinea-Bissau before drawing 1-1 with Madagascar. Nigeria’s three most recent home victories, together with their historical advantage in this fixture, support the prediction that the hosts will score the opening goal.
Egypt v Malawi – 13 November, 19:00 GMT
Betting option: Mohamed Salah to score (odds: 1.67)
Egypt face Malawi after an unbeaten start to their qualifying campaign. They drew 0-0 with Angola in their first match before recording a convincing 5-0 victory over South Sudan.
Mohamed Salah has returned to the national team and joined the squad, giving Egypt one of their main attacking threats for the game.
Malawi were beaten 3-1 by Angola and have failed to win any of their past five away matches. Their captain, Richard Mbulu, is available again after recovering from a recent injury.
Egypt’s attacking display against South Sudan, combined with Salah’s return, presents a difficult challenge for the visitors.
Morocco v Niger – 13 November, 20:00 GMT
Betting option: Morocco to win to nil (odds: 1.34)
Morocco have won both of their opening qualifying fixtures by 2-0, against Gabon and Lesotho, and have yet to concede a goal.
Yassine Bounou, Achraf Hakimi and Nayef Aguerd provide defensive strength, while the return of Youssef En-Nesyri adds to the attacking choices available to manager Mohamed Ouahbi.
Niger go into the match after a 2-0 defeat by Gabon and have lost three of their past four games. Morocco will be without several players, including Azzedine Ounahi, Ismael Saibari and Ayoub El Kaabi.
The Moroccan defence has kept three clean sheets in its past four competitive matches, reinforcing the selection of a home win without conceding.
Odds may change.
