Tip and bets

2.08handicap (-3.5) for New Zealand

The hosts dominate in their geographical region, because they have the strongest squad, so the other teams usually lose heavily to New Zealand. The Fijian national team looks good in matches against teams of a comparable level, but it is unlikely to be possible to impose competition on such a grandee as New Zealand. We believe that the New Zealanders will be able to win another major victory.

Bet on the total

The hosts are much superior to all geographical opponents and regularly show productive football in qualifying matches. Given the huge difference in class, we believe that this time New Zealand will be able to send a lot of goals into the opponent's goal.

Our betting tip is a total of more than 3.5 goals in 1.58

Betting on corners

The hosts must seize the initiative from the very first minutes of the match. Surely New Zealand will have a serious advantage in the corners.
