GettyThe draw for the 2019 African Cup of Nations has been kind to Nigeria, but looks much tougher for hosts Egypt. As the hosts of the tournament, and the finalists of the 2017 African Cup of Nations, Egypt are probably the favorites going into this year’s tournament. Morocco last won the African Cup of Nations back in 1976, but coach Herve Renard has got them looking very impressive. Senegal missed out on the World Cup knockout stages by the slimmest of margins, but have never won the African Cup of Nations. The 2019 African Cup of Nations opens with Egypt against Zimbabwe on the 21st of June.
