Burkina Faso vs Gabon Prediction: Allevinah to fire The Panthers into quarters

The Africa Cup of Nations has reached the knockout stages and we will have previews and tips for every game moving forward. We have asked our man OddsTerrier to cover the tie between Burkina Faso and Gabon on Sunday and to pick out two bets for you to have a gander at. 

Burkina Faso are slight favourites to win this one at 17/10. The draw is well fancied at 2/1 and Gabon are out at 11/5.

Both sides have no fresh injury concerns.

First up we've taken Gabon to qualify. I can see this game being extremely cagey and it may even go all the way to penalties. However, I think Gabon come into this with a siege mentality. They have lost two of their star players and have dealt with it magnificently and are unbeaten thus far. This game will be tight but I just think Gabon have a touch more quality.

The 24/23 to qualify bet covers them to win in 90 mins, extra time or on penalties.

Next up we've taken Gabonese forward Jim Allevinah to score anytime. No one has benefited from the absence of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang more than Allevinah. The winger has been put more central and has revelled in the role; scoring twice in two starts. The 26-year-old has worked his way up through the French league system and now plays at the top level for Clermont. His 12 goals last season helped the club to get promoted to Ligue 1 and he's played regularly for them this season. 

I like the 3/1 on offer for him to score anytime but please look around at the odds as there were very few odds at the time of posting.
