DR Congo – Ghana – the second day of the weekend we expect the remaining two quarter-final match at the African Cup of Nations to be held in Gabon and in the first of them meet the selection DRC and Ghana, which are normally two years ago and competed in the semi-finals of this competition. However, Ghana was later passed and the finale, where he lost to the Ivory Coast, which is again above the semi-finals was better just by selection DRC. Otherwise, the last duel of the two teams took place three years ago in the championship of Africa, where participating only players from the domestic league, and then celebrated with Ghana 1: 0, while previously the strongest team three times in a row played draws.
DR Congo
This actually means that the selection of the DRC in recent history still does not know how to win over Ghana but their is this creates an ideal opportunity to do it, as well, especially since in this competition in Gabon provide very good games. In fact, they are in a very strong group won seven points and both ended up as the first in the standings, with particular highlights the fact that they are scoring goals in all three matches of the group stage.
In fact, it all started minimal triumph of 1: 0 over Morocco, then the reigning champion against the Ivory Coast played a draw – 2: 2 to the key points for quarterfinals won the last match with Togo, who have mastered the 3: first Otherwise, in the third round on the bench the rest of the fragile guard N’Sakala and striker Mbokani, but they will now probably get a chance from the first minute, since the selector Ibenge just on the field should send their strongest strength.
Probable lineups DRC: Matampi – mpek, Bokado, Tisserand, N’Sakala – Mbemba, Mulumbu – MUBEA, Kebano, Kabananga – Mbokani
Ghana
As for the current African vice-champions, they are the next two earned victory and won second place in their group, left a rather modest impression after matches of the group stage, so that the passage to the semifinals definitely be present in a much better edition against extremely unfavorable selection DR Congo. The chosen coach Grant are in the first two rounds of the group stage with the 1: 0 win over Uganda and Mali, but then in a direct skirmish for the first place team the same result they lost to Egypt.
Of course that after this match immediately emerged and some of the stories that they deliberately lost to Egypt, because they believe in the quarter have a better chance against the selection of the DRC but against Morocco, which in turn may not be far from the truth if we consider that the Avram selector in the last round rested several players who were previously starters against Mali and Uganda. It should also be added that after the defender Babe now hurt and experienced striker Gyan, so we will probably see in the semifinals and change formations selection of Ghana from 4-4-2 to 4-3-3.
Probable lineups Ghana: Razak – Afful, Amartey, Boye, Acheampong – Badu, Thomas, Wakaso – Atsu, J. Ayew A. Ayew
DR Congo – Ghana TIP
Although Ghana welcomes this meeting with the reputation of the current vice-champion of Africa, we still believe that in the group stage a much better impression left selection DRC so that is why we expect that they at worst election overtime in the quarterfinals.
Prediction: Ghana to qualify
Odds: 1.70
