Niger to open the scoring
Niger is our favourite team to open the scoring in this match. The hosts have a terrible defence and we don’t think they stand a chance in this game even though both sides lost their first fixtures. The hosts have leaked 17 goals and scored only twice in the last five games while Niger has leaked eight goals in as many matches and scored thrice.
Goals on both sides
Poor defending condemned Niger to a 2-0 defeat in the first Group A match while Djibouti fell 8-0 to Algeria. Both sides lost four of the last five games because of weak defending. For that, we are tipping both teams to score against each other in this fixture.
Over 2.5
We are also tipping a high scoring fixture between Djibouti and Niger. These teams are struggling defensively and backing goals on both sides is plausible. However, the hosts look more predisposed to conceding more on a matchday than the visitors.
Match Preview: Djibouti Locks Horns with Niger for the First Time in World Cup Qualifiers
Our match preview provides more insights into this game.
Djibouti
Djibouti has been the culprit of terrible defending in recent fixtures. The hosts have 1D and 4L in their last five games, during which they scored only two goals. Moreover, the hosts are ranked 182nd by FIFA, a position that makes them one of the worst teams in world football. For head coach, Julien Mette, turning around 8-0 defeat in the first game is a hefty challenge even though home advantage should play significance in this fixture. Julien Mette averages 1.00 points after five games in charge.
Niger
Niger is ranked 117th by FIFA. The visitors fell 2-0 to Burkina Faso in the first qualifier fixture. A trip to Djibouti compounds problems for Niger after a poor start to the campaign. However, better defence than that of Niger could come to the rescue of Niger as they prepare for the maiden trip for the second game in CAF Group A, World Cup qualifiers.
