This tournament is always good for a wee bet. Ivory Coast are massive favourites for this, best price 13/8. Closest challenger is Ghana at 5/1 followed by Senegal at 8s.

It looks to be justified though as I was reading today that IC won't let either of the Toure brothers stay back for the Manchester derby this weekend, insisting their squad has a full 2 weeks preparation time ahead of the tournament. Obviously taking it very seriously, and they have undeniaby the strongest squad.

Might have a wee each way on Senegal though, with The Sheep up front anything can happen!

Don't know about others but I seem to remember having a total nightmare with the 2010 ACN, it threw up one or two surprise results as a result of some God awful goalkeeping.

Just shows you how much of a minefield African football is with Egypt not even qualifying!
