Sao Tome and Principe vs Nigeria: Top Free Betting Tips

Nigeria won their opening match without surprise and will have an even easier task against one of the smallest nations in Africa.

Total Goals – Over 2.5

We do not expect a goal from Sao Tome and Principe but we expect at least three from Nigeria in this match. Surprisingly, Sao Tome managed to score a goal against Guinea Bissau in the first round and who knows, maybe they will shock Nigeria for a bit in this match too. In each case, Nigeria should have an easy task against this opponent and given that Guinea Bissau scored 5 goals against Sao Tome, Nigeria should net at least three as the even better team.

Half Time Result – Nigeria

There is no doubt that the odds for Nigeria will be too low to even be considered, so we opt for the market that will likely have worthy odds – the half time win. Nigeria are one of the top teams in Africa while Sao Tome are one of the smallest ones and the lowest-ranked in this group. Nigeria should have no problems to win this match and we expect at least two goals before half time. It is true that Sao Tome did not lose at half time against Guinea Bissau but Nigeria are a much stronger team than Guinea.

Both Teams To Score – No

As mentioned at the start, we do not expect a goal from Sao Tome in this match. Nigeria conceded against Sierra Leona, who have a great squad, and Sao Tome scored a surprising first goal against Guinea Bissau. But that was quite unexpected and we saw how the match ended – 5:1. Nigeria have a stronger defense and should be able to hold the net clean for 90 minutes.

Sao Tome and Principe Preview

Sao Tome and Principe is one of the smallest nations in Africa with a population of just over 200,000. Nigeria is one of the biggest ones but also one of the best in football – traditionally. Right now, Sao Tome are ranked at 189th place out of 211 nations in the FIFA World Rankings. Their squad does not include any big names and most of their footballers cannot even be considered as professional players.

Nigeria Preview

Nigeria do not have the strongest squad but their chemistry is great and there are a lot of young talents that perform at a good level in Europe. For example, Alex Iwobi is a winger for Everton and spent his youth in Arsenal. Multiple other players perform in the Netherlands, France, and other top leagues. Nigeria should be able to win the group in the end but even if they do not, there is no doubt that they will end in second place and qualify.
