If Tunisia win their last game they shall have five points and shall progre s with Zambia  Kyle Engel Jersey who shall also progre s with five pointsdue to the tournament head to head rules.  Daniel CousinHowever, all these permutations will be unnece sary if Gabon continue their fine form and beat the struggling Zambians or hold them to a draw.In the game against Tunisia manager Gire se tinkered with his line up opting to omit Rogu meye and include the youngster Abameyang , who impre sed in a dull match. This time around however he may have a difficult decision to make in regards to attackers.Daniel Cousin is an automatic inclusion. The captain scored against Cameroon and was a noticeable pain to the Tunisian defence with his direct runs and imposing physique. The choice for Cousins partner in attack is a more difficult matter. Meye, Aubameyang and Stephane Ngueme are e sentially competing for the same spot as the creative link to Cousin, on the premise that the manager plays two up-front. However if Gire se plans to attack and seek a win and group D top spot he may favour a three pronged attack. This will ensure the inclusion of two of the above.Gabon manage Alain Gire seThe defence and midfield have been generally solid for Gabon and no major changes are expected. There is an injury doubt for centre midfielder Cedric Moubamba, and he shall who undergo a late fitne s test tomorrow.Zambia coach Herve Renard seems to be confident and expects and a win and subsequent progre sion to the quarters. His players so far have impre sed in patches and were unlucky to lose against Cameroon. A draw is usele s for the Zambians and only a win will do, so Zambia will have to attack leaving them open to counter attack. This is a dangerous weakne s considering the Gabon attack.Match Prediction : Gabon 3 Zambia 1  Cece Jefferson Jersey
