Nigeria Huge Odds On To Beat Modest Benin

Nigeria take on Benin in this African Nations Cup, Group C match in the full knowledge that defeat will mean their elimination from the tournament. That said they should have far too much ammunition for a modest Benin side and should they win it could be good enough to gain qualification from the group. Bookmakers Bet365 have the Nigerians at 4/9 odds on to win the match, with Benin not given too much hope at 7/1, the draw being 3/1.

Nigeria, known as the ‘Super Eagles’ were rocked in their opening match against current champions Egypt, where they were beaten 3-1, but they are a better team than that result suggests and we fully expect the odds of them to win this match emphatically will be vindicated.

Bet on Nigeria in the 2010 Africa Nations Cup.

The Nigerians have an outstanding record in this competition, winning it twice and runners-up four times. In fact, the 2008 tournament saw their worst performance where they only made the quarter-finals. Benin on the other hand have never got beyond the group stage and unless they can produce a miracle of a performance in this match we feel that the same fate will be on the cards once again.
