- Namibians after being trashed 1-5 by Morocco got great handicap and very high odds in game against Ghana. But as we saw, after getting 3 players back after suspensions, regrouping the defence and playing more tactically, Namibia put a brave, good resistance to Ghana, losing only 0:1, and they were happy after it. They'll want another such performance, for the sake of their pride(pride is important thing you know..). As for Guinea, they produced fine effort to beat Morocco and now they need a win here to be almost sure of qualification(they'll fail if Ghana and Morocco produce 2:3 game which is not very likely). But they can't change their fate by scoring goals here, they just need a win, be it 1:0 or 10:0, no difference. They share many traits of West African teams: talented by often unconcentrated, sleepy, creating chances just to blaze the ball high over the bar. Most important thing is, they'll play without Pascal Feindouno in this game. He is heart of the team, captain, best player, freekick and penalty taker, most creative player etc. Without him orchestrating the midfield, Guinea will have trouble creating clear chances. They of course have many other talented players, but Feindouno was adding that extra bit. Feindouno has most goals in career for Guinea in current squad, for example in qualification to 2008 ANC Guinea didn't won a game when Feindouno didn't scored in a game, he score in 3 of 6 games and they've won those 3. Namibians will want another brave display and Guinea might not have it easy in this game, getting past Namibia defence without Feindouno. Maybe I'm riding my luck betting on poor Namibia again, but I like this high handicap too m
- pick N 2
