@Total-Football @khaled_a_d A month and 2 weeks until the AFCON starts in Morocco. What are your predictions for the tournament and do you think Morocco can actually take advantage of their talent and win it at home. I think Tunisia will do decently in group stage 2 wins and a draw to Nigeria, and go out in the quarters/semis to Mali, Burkina Faso and South Africa as usual…

Honestly, no idea.
Morocco should be favourite, obviously, but it rarely works this way.
I think Senegal is right there too.

Morocco hosting the tournament and not having won the cup since 1976 will be huge in motivaton.

On another note it's disappointing to see Nigeria and Cameroon fighting for a single playoff spot that will lead them to another inter-continental playoff round for the World Cup.

Morocco definitely favorites. Home turf makes it even more so.. then u have the usual suspects.. egypt, nigeria, Senegal...
Any other team would be a surprise for me.. but there are almost always surprises in afcon. I think this is gonna be the one and Morocco will wint it.. what makes u think Tunisia will do decently lol.. there are no indicators of that , players wise, or team play wise.. well let's see.. good thing about afcon this time african players will play on great stadiums and will have the opportunity to display themselves well. Weather in December is perfect too here.

The great performance in the World Cup qualifiers with 9 wins and 1 draw where we scored 22 goals and conceded none. Now I know it’s kinda unfair to judge over that but I feel like there could be some hope we could do something more respectable than the disastrous performance in the previous AFCON.
