Total Goals – Under 2.5
As you see from the stats above, Gambia had an under while Congo lost with 4:0 in the first round. We expect a better result from Congo this time although we do not expect a huge number of goals overall. Gambia are not among the top teams in Africa but their defense is quite strong and they rarely concede goals in their matches. We expect one or two goals in this fixture but a definite under 2.5. Gambia had less than 3 goals in 8 of their last 10 games in all tournaments.
Double Chance – Draw or Gambia
Congo are the higher-ranked team when it comes to the FIFA world rankings but Gambia have been much better over the past couple of years. Congo did not play in the last AFC and also failed to qualify for the World Cup. Overall, the team has a single win in the last 10 fixtures in the past 12 months. On the other end, Gambia reached the 1/4 finals of the Africa Cup of Nations and have only 2 defeats in their last 10 games since November. We expect a positive result for Gambia but it could either be a draw or a win.
Gambia Exact Goals – 1 Goal
Congo's defense has been struggling a lot over the past year and we saw a bunch of games in which they conceded more than 1 goal. Gambia's defense is much better but their attack is not a high-scoring one at all. They managed to score more than one goal in a single match in their last 10. In most cases, they score 1 goal and usually it is enough for at least a draw. We expect a better performance from Congo's defense and a maximum of 1 goal for Gambia.
