Cameroon vs Burkina Faso Odds
The last four clashes between these two countries have ended in under 2.5 goals and the last two games have seen only one goal scored. The opening games of major tournaments are often dour, low scoring affairs and the AFCON has form for it. Neither side has a prolific scorer so I think this game will likely be settled by a single goal. With that in mind iIve combined the heavily odds on unders bet with Both Teams not to score to give us odds a fraction over 6/5 at value kings SBK.
If any player is likely to break the deadlock here, it's Vincent Aboubakar who was featured in our Top Goalscorer article. The 29 year old is Cameroon's second highest ever scorer with 25 national goals. He scored three goals in their AFCON qualifying campaign and is on penalty duty for the Indomitable Lions. At 4/1 he looks a decent punt for our first goalscorer bet.
