Match Prediction

There’s a strong case when it comes to selecting Under 2.5 Goals for this World Cup qualifying encounter. There might not be fireworks between the two teams and we’ve snapped up the odds of -150.

The football betting tips stem from knowing the team news and the latest form for each side. We work hard to unearth the most pertinent World Cup qualifying stats which can also act as a guide.

Under 2.5 Probability

The betting odds at the top bookies suggest our pick carries a 60% chance of winning. However, our experts have this number between 65-70% based on their in-depth research. This bet can therefore be backed with confidence.

There’s a larger price available if you combine the Under 2.5 pick on the Total Goals & Both Teams to Score market. Combining this with BTTS No will give you increased odds.

Correct Score Prediction

Scotland Made Favourites by the Bookies

With an approximate 67% chance of succeeding, the bookies are being cautious with their -200 betting odds for Scotland triumphing in this World Cup qualifying encounter. If you’re looking for an alternative angle, Belarus are trading at +500.

One way of getting with Scotland is taking them at -108 on the Asian Handicap -1. You’re successful if they beat Belarus by two goals and get money back if the margin is just one.

Under 2.5 Goals is currently the betting favourite and a bet on this option would mean you need no more than two goals to be scored. A different slant is having a BTTS bet and Both Teams to Score No is chalked up at -175.

The leading football betting sites provide hundreds of markets for the latest World Cup qualifying games. Be sure to peruse all of the available options before going ahead with your preferred wager.
