Niger vs Ghana Prediction & Betting Tips - AFCON
by Daniel Ngulu in AFCON Predictions
Niger will host African giants Ghana in their second match of the 2025 AFCON qualifiers this Monday. Having no CAF-standard venue, Niger will take this Group F match to Berkane, Morocco. Read on for our prediction.
Both nations will be looking to bounce back after respective defeats in the first round. Niger, playing away to Sudan, suffered a 1-0 loss in Juba. The defeat left them with just a win in their last five matches.
They couldn’t build on their impressive 3-0 win against Congo in the World Cup qualifiers. Against Ghana, it gets even tougher for Niger, who on paper, have five losses in seven home matches. They have just a win in nine AFCON qualification matches and failed to score in three of the last four.
Four-time African champions Ghana also had a losing start to the qualifiers, falling at home to Angola. Felicio Mendes' stoppage time goal condemned the Black Stars to a 1-0 defeat in a match that was later marred with fan trouble.
The loss disrupted Ghana’s run of three unbeaten matches, which had two back-to-back wins. For the first time in eight matches, Ghana failed to score, and coach Otto Addo will be expecting improvement.
However, having scored at least twice in five of the last seven matches, the last result seems like just a blip. In their last 15 matches in AFCON qualification, Ghana lost just twice. They are unbeaten in four away matches in such qualifiers, though all were draws.

Our Niger vs Ghana Prediction
Niger playing a home game away in Morocco will not really help their targets for AFCON 2025. They are coming from a 10th loss in 15 matches and would have done with home support. Instead, Ezzaiki Badou’s side comes here as underdogs, facing a Ghana side that’s also desperate for a win.
Ghana have their backs against the wall but this should yield a routine win. Their loss to Angola was seen as an unfortunate stumble and in their AFCON qualification form, we will back them to rise again. Our prediction for Niger v Ghana is for Ghana to win.
