Are you really that confident that Egypt will win this African Cup? In such a case, you can make some easy money, as the bookmakers do not consider them as favorites and give great odds for them to win:

Senegal 2.55

Cameroon 2.85

Egypt 3.90

Burkina Faso 10.10

In my opinion, Senegal and Cameroon have the best chance of winning, and especially Cameroon as this championship is their home venue.

i would definitely be shocked if burkina faso became champion, egypt has a chance, they win games in a painful way but it is teams like this that most of the time become champions, well at least in african tournaments it has been frequent to see that, in the end big teams with greater odds hardly become champions in africa competitions

if I'm going to place a bet I don't risk going against bookmakers

But given how most of the games in the tournament are played, this is a very likely option. In the end, there are only two games left (for each of the remaining teams) and Burkina Faso can easily win these two games, for example in a penalty shoot-out.  Of course, I will not bet on this, but if everything happens that way, then it will not be surprising.

Indeed, we are accustomed to watching African Cup matches of this magnitude, Burkina Faso has a selection of active players in European championships that can make the difference, and the capabilities of Senegalese players can win the next two rounds and achieve the championship.

I also think that the odds are tempting, especially the Egyptian team, which can simply beat Cameroon.
