Total Goals – Over 2.5
Burkina Faso and Cape Verde were in the same group of the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations and played one match that was won by Burkina Faso. That was a 0:1 win but this time, we expect to see an over 2.5. Both sides will be more open in this match and both sides can score goals on a good day. We think that there will be goals from both sides and while this match could end in a 1:1 draw, we expect Burkina Faso to win it in the end.
Match Result – Burkina Faso
As mentioned above, Burkina Faso reached the semi-finals of the Africa Cup of Nations this year and in the end, finished at 4th place. This was a huge achievement and a definite surprise for all fans. Their squad has great chemistry and they can score goals. In the matches against Cape Verde, Burkina Faso are on a 3-game winning streak since 2016. We expect a win for the hosts.
Both Teams To Score – Yes
In most cases, we would bet on the opposite market in the qualifications but we have two good sides that can score goals. Burkina Faso scored a goal in 10 consecutive home games in all tournaments and we will be surprised not to see them score at least once in this match. On multiple occasions, they netted even more than one goal. On the other side, Cape Verde also score goals in most of their matches, at least in 8 out of their last 10 away games as a national team.
