Riding high from their 1-1 draw against Cameroon, Guinea will look to build on the point they collected when they go one-on-one against Gambia at the Stade Charles Kona Banny de Yamoussoukro in matchday 2 of Group C on Friday, with kickoff slated for 20:00 GMT.
Key Highlights
Guinea are in mixed form in the lead-up to the AFCON tournament. In their four international outings heading up to 2024 AFCON, Guinea won twice, drew once, and lost once. They scored five goals and conceded three goals in the process, keeping two just one clean sheet.
In the clash against Cameroon in the Group C opener, they showed significant fighting spirit, discipline, and aggression to get the point. They will look to leverage their battling traits in their clash against Gambia on Friday.
Gambia came into the AFCON tournament in poor form, losing back-to-back matches against Burundi (3-2) and Ivory Coast (0-2). This run was extended when they were beaten comprehensively by Senegal (3-0) in their opening Group C clash.
