A supercomputer has indicated that Ghana has a 5.3 % chance of winning the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

The AFCON kicks off on Saturday, with 24 teams competing to be crowned kings of the continent.

The tournament was pushed back due to weather concerns in Ivory Coast after originally being scheduled for June 2023.

The host Ivory Coast will get the competition underway against Guinea-Bissau at the Alassane Ouattara Stadium, Abidjan(20:00).

The Blackstars will begin their Group B campaign against Cape Verde on Sunday at the Felix Houphouet-Boigny Stadium, Abidjan (20:00).

 

 

According to the Opta Supercomputer, Egypt have a 47.2% chance of topping Group B.
