1.25Tip and bets
The Venezuelan national team is a serious opponent in the current qualification, especially on their home field – the “vinotinto” have not lost in any of their three home matches in the qualification. The Venezuelans play especially well in defense, having not conceded a single goal at home in the current qualification, and will probably be extremely careful today. Uruguay is also unlikely to open up in the conditions of an acute personnel shortage, and it is unlikely that they will count on a goal extravaganza.
We believe that the match will not be productive. Betting Tip - total under two goals . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.75
Bet on the outcome
The Uruguayan national team will be missing four key players today due to disqualification, and there is no way to fully replace them – the match with Paraguay a few days ago clearly demonstrated this. Venezuela is capable of giving any opponent a fight at home and in a confrontation with Uruguay weakened by personnel losses, it is quite capable of even aiming for victory.
Bet - Asian handicap (0) on Venezuela. This bet is offered for 2.35
Bet on corners
Venezuela will probably spend a lot of time attacking at home, but Uruguay is quite capable of responding – there should be a lot of corners.
Bet - total over 8.5 corners. This bet is offered for 1.99
