Benin vs Botswana Odds

The odds are updated on a frequent basis. You might therefore find that they are different to the ones listed for the above betting predictions.

Benin are forecasted to have a 57% chance of triumphing in this Africa Cup of Nations encounter according to the bookmakers. It leads to their latest betting odds being -135. If you’re interested in wagering Botswana, you can get +420 for the underdog.

There’s an alternative Asian Handicap angle where you back Benin -0.75 against Botswana at -103. A 2+ goal win means a full return, although you get a payout on half your stake if they win by one and the other half is refunded.

A low-scoring contest will be predicted by several which is reflected in the fact that Under 2.5 Goals has the shortest odds. A viable alternative is betting the BTTS market and opting for the -147 about Both Teams to Score No.

The best football betting sites offer hundreds of markets when it comes to Africa Cup of Nations games. Make sure you look through all the available options before deciding which bet to place.
