Nigeria vs. Egypt

An Africa Cup of Nations battle between two strong teams. Nigeria is playing well, particularly on defense on a 4-1-1 run outscoring opponents 9-3. That included a 1-1 DRAW in their last game against Cabo Verde. They will be without formidable defender Leon Balogun for this match. Egypt is on a 9-2-3 run allowing just 7 goals. Egypt comes off two close games against Tunisia (a 1-0 loss) and Qatar (0-0). In their last 10 Africa Cup of Nations games, Egypt is 7-2-1 with an edge in goals 10-4, including four 1-0 wins and a 0-0 DRAW with Mali. The wagering value is a deadlock in this evenly matched tilt. Take Nigeria/Egypt to DRAW.
