The Stade Charles Konan Banny de Yamoussoukro will reverberate with anticipation as Guinea lock horns with Senegal in a decisive Group C clash at the Africa Cup of Nations.

The National Elephants need just one point to secure a top-two finish in the group and guarantee their qualification for the knockout stage, while the Teranga Lions, who have already sealed their place in the last 16, must avoid defeat to finish top of the group.

We say: Guinea 1-1 Senegal

Expect a cagey affair, with both teams hesitant to take undue risks. While Senegal's superior attacking weapons and experience, even with a potential change in their forward line, should give them the advantage, Guinea's resolute determination to secure qualification could make this a tighter encounter than many predict.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Gambia vs. Cameroon (Tuesday, 5.00pm)

The Stade Bouake prepares for a crucial Group D clash at the Africa Cup of Nations as Gambia and Cameroon face off on Tuesday.

Already at the brink of elimination from the 2023 AFCON, the Scorpions will seek to play spoiler against the Indomitable Lions, who still have a chance to advance.

We say: Gambia 0-1 Cameroon

Gambia are going to put up a fight, but Cameroon's superior quality could be the difference. The Indomitable Lions have struggled to create high-quality chances in this tournament but they should have too much for the Scorpions.

Our tipster partners are predicting an away win.

Angola and Burkina Faso round off their Africa Cup of Nations group-stage campaign with a meeting at the Charles Konan Banny Stadium on Tuesday.

Having both all but guaranteed themselves a place in the knockout phase, the teams now set out to finish as group winners by coming out on top here.

We say: Angola 1-1 Burkina Faso

Both Angola and Burkina Faso have given a good account of themselves over the opening two matches and will be full of confidence heading into this one. We are backing a share of the spoils with honours even at the end of the 90 minutes.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Algeria will look to book their spot in the knockout stages of the Africa Cup of Nations when they take on Mauritania in their final Group D game at the Peace of Bouake Stadium.

While the Lions of Chinguetti aim to qualify as one of the best third-placed sides, the North African heavyweight will see this as a must-win fixture as they seek to avoid a second consecutive group-stage exit.

We say: Mauritania 0-2 Algeria

Following a disappointing first two games, Algeria will head into Tuesday's tie looking to pick up a statement result. Given the gulf in quality and experience between the two sides, we are backing the Desert Foxes to claim a comfortable victory and extend their dominance over Mauritania.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.
