    What's the play SA? South Africa seems to be the obvious choice, but Cape Verde have a good squad with a lot to prove. Can you see them squeezing out the draw here?

    Cape Verde/Draw in Double Chance - South Africa are not a good team despite the fact they're hosts.

    Also got a cheeky bet on Ryan Mendes (Cape Verde) as E/W First Scorer. He's probably the best footballer the nation has ever seen.

    GL guys.

    fuuck ruined my +1 a.h. with Cape Verde to score. And they had two great chacnes, especialyl Platini in first 15 mins with a one-on-one. As I thought S Africa massively over-rated jut because of their name and being home country. Will probably look to fade them in their two other games!

    Sorry guys, I hadn't time to reply yesterday.
    I agree with Vaugh: South Africa were overrated but I didn't knew too much Cape Verde to place a bet yesterday.
    Angola - Morocco 0-0 btw and I'm not surprised since these squad are not too much different imho.

    The first round I usually prefer to sit back and enjoy the match rather than place a bet but Ghana - Congo is a little bit interesting for betting: Ghana -1 is now offered at +111 on asians and I definitely like this one more than Mali -1 against Niger.

    Mali is a very tough team but this Niger kicked off Guinea in the final preliminary round.

    Mali should win comfortably but wouldnt be surprised if it's another low scoring draw (hence why I played the Mali PK).

    yeah put a tiny play on Ghana -1 @ +117. Only concern is Mbokani but he should get much service

    ha as I thought, Mbokani is the difference. Hopefully Ghana snatch a winner and my over hits and -1 is a push. Gyan's miss could be costly

    probably because how games have gone so far. Big favourites Ghana and S.Africa only got draws and Mali scraped a late winner. I'd play Burkino Faso +1 A.H. if anything

    1st group games are tight tense affairs. 2nd and 3rd group games more goals. Looking for two more draws tomorrow. Also going on Ivory Coast and Togo under 2.5 goals.
