African Nations Cup Betting Odds Have Ivory Coast As Favourites And Should Impact World Cup Odds
Wednesday 30 December 2009 at 11:16
 Ivory Coast are the favourites to win January’s African Cup Of Nations according to the latest betting odds and whoever wins is likely to shorten in the World Cup Odds should they be one of the African sides taking part in the 2010 World Cup.
Ivory Coast Deserve To Be Favourites With All Their Stars
Ivory Coast are unsurprisingly favourites to win the African Nations Cup and currently be backed at 13/5 with Stan James to win the tournament. Ivory Coast have a very strong side featuring players such as Didier Drogba and Kolo Toure and they are expected to do well in the World Cup in the Summer, they are rated ninth best at 28/1 with Sportingbet and William Hill. Ghana and Cameroon are next best in the African Cup Of Nations Betting Odds, they are 5/1 with Blue Square and 6/1 with Totesport respectively.
Egypt Likely To Do Put Up A Good Fight And Angola Are Overpriced
The host nations have a good record in the tournament and Angola are hosting in 2010 and they are probably overpriced at 25/1 with Boylesports. Another nation that is overpriced is Egypt. They may have failed to qualify for the World Cup (due to losing a playoff to Angola) but they have won the African Nations Cup twice in the last two tournaments and also won in 1998. They are worth a bet at 9/1 with Paddy Power, Stan James have the right idea having them at just 4/1. For more African Nations Cup Betting Odds click on any of the bookie links above.
