Estas são as melhores dicas gratuitas para a difícil semifinal
So far, they have not been called off at home in the Africa Cup of Nations, and we are building a tip on that.
The semi-finals of the continental tournaments in Asia and Africa have reached their semi-finals, with Jordan awaiting its finalist, which will be either Iran or Qatar. Meanwhile, on the black continent, Nigeria-South Africa and Ivory Coast-DR Congo are the semi-finals, and we have picked a very strong pick.
The hosts will be the favourites in the second match, which will be a curiosity as it will feature two teams that have won just 1 out of 5 games in the tournament in regular time. Congo beat Guinea in 90 minutes after four draws, while the Elephants won against Guinea-Bissau, capitulated to Nigeria and Equatorial Guniea, and beat Senegal and Mali in extra time in the knockout stages.
A draw is almost a foregone conclusion in this encounter, and it is no coincidence that the remi pays under odds of 3, as the goal line is set at around 1.75. A close encounter is expected and the cards are almost a given.
The exception to this might be DR Congo, as the Leopards have only received 7 yellow cards in their matches so far, one of the fewest in the tournament. On the other side, the tournament hosts have been spared no quarter, with Ivory Coast now on 16 including extra time – leading the standings.
The referee will be 33-year-old Libyan Mutaz Ibrahim, who is having a strong tournament. This will be his fourth game in charge of the sport, he has given 5, 9 and 4 cards so far, so we can have every reason to be confident that the streak will continue.
The best tips for Ivory Coast-DR Congo
We have picked out several good picks here, one of them being a straight over. Even though the extra time cards would not count in our prediction, 90 minutes could easily add up to enough cautions in a semi-final. Nevertheless, it is worth handicapping the Elephants. So far, this Africa Cup of Nations doesn’t look like one where the hosts will be deliberately booed, so the numbers suggest there’s little chance of DR Congo getting the more cards.
