Nigeria vs. South Africa (Wednesday, 5.00pm)

Nigeria's impressive Africa Cup of Nations campaign has put them a step away from the final, but they must outdo South Africa in Wednesday's semi-final at Stade de la Paix.

The Super Eagles kept a fourth consecutive clean sheet last time out against Angola en route to the last four, while Bafana Bafana needed Ronwen Williams at his finest to defeat Cape Verde in the quarter-finals.

We say: Nigeria 1-0 South Africa

Nigeria have not only had an extra day to recover before Wednesday's fixture with South Africa in Bouake, they have also navigated the knockout rounds without needing extra time or penalties to advance, giving Peseiro's side the physical edge needed in the semis to advance to the competition's decider.

Ivory Coast vs. Congo DR (Wednesday, 8.00pm)

Ivory Coast battle Congo DR at the Alassane Ouattara Stadium on Wednesday in the second semi-final at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

It is the Elephants' first game in Ebimpe since their 4-0 humiliation against Equatorial Guinea at the group stage, and they get the chance to appease the supporters in Abidjan against a DRC side keen to make the competition's decider since 1974.

We say: Ivory Coast 2-1 Congo DR

While Desabre's side could fancy their prospects against the host nation, the Elephants have momentum and the backing of the home support.
