Yes, I believe you are missing the fact that a mere drawwill guarantee teh Ivoirians top spot, and guarantee Mali 2nd spot, which is why most bookies are expecting it and some even make it odds-on (less than evens)

That and the fact that Cote d'Ivoire usually filed their 2nd string after they win the 1st 2 games and guarantee qualification makes it worth a lay... at least until we see how the 1st group final standings end up
