Georgia vs Ukraine Prediction and Betting Tips (16.11.2024)

Command Analysis

Georgia

Current form

Georgia got off to a strong start in the Nations League, winning two straight away, against the Czech Republic (4:1) and Albania (1:0). However, they failed to build on their success. In the next two rounds, Willy Sagnol men suffered narrow 0:1 defeats from Ukraine and Albania. The Georgians are approaching the upcoming match in second place in the table with six points, ahead of Albania in additional indicators. The Czech Republic is ahead by one point. There was no outright failure in the two lost matches, but their execution let them down in many ways; against the same Albanians, they had a total advantage in ball possession, made 16 shots on goal, but still failed to score.

Disqualifications and injuries

Defender Lasha Dvali will not play today due to disqualification.

Interesting trends for betting

Three of Georgia previous five matches ended in a draw at halftime

Estimated line-up: Mamardashvili – Gvelesiani, Kashia, Goglichidze – Kakabadze, Chakvetadze, Kochoraishvili, Kiteishvili, Lochoshvili – Mikautadze, Kvaratskhelia.

Ukraine

Current form

Ukraine had a disastrous start to the League of Nations, suffering immediate defeats from Albania (1:2) and the Czech Republic (2:3). However, it is worth giving credit to Serhiy Rebrov charges. The footballers scored four points in the next two rounds and retain their chances to continue the fight, although they occupy the last place. In fact, a victory today will allow them to move up at least one line, given the density of the table. The Ukrainians defeated Georgia (1:0) and drew with the Czech Republic (1:1). In general, the team is demonstrating a very unstable game, there is no single pattern, no clear tactics.

Disqualifications and injuries

Lunin, Yarmolenko, Stepanenko, Tsygankov, Tymchyk and Buyalsky will not play today. Dovbyk appearance on the field is questionable.

Tip and bets

1.86Georgia with a handicap (0)

After two defeats in a row, Georgia will clearly be over-motivated to take three points on their home field with solid support from their fans. We think they will have a good chance of doing so. However, in terms of game organization, Sagnol team is more convincing than their opponent. The Ukrainians do not have a clear game plan, you can often see that they cannot hold the ball, the players simply do not know what to do, they lack teamwork. In our opinion, the Georgians should be more obvious favorites in the bookmakers' line on their home field.

Our prediction is Georgia victory with an Asian handicap (0) at odds of 1.86

The upcoming match is of great tournament importance, and it is unlikely that an open game will take place. It is highly likely that, as in the first round, the fate of the match in Batumi can be decided by one goal.

The second bet is total under 2.5 goals with odds of 1.72

Betting on yellow cards

When choosing bets, please note that in six of the last seven home matches in the Nations League, the Georgian national team players did not receive more than two yellow cards. Based on such statistics, we recommend another prediction for the game.
