Benin Match Odds Suggest Victory
The bookies have Benin at -188 when it comes to Full-Time Result. This implies that the favourites are 65% likely to win this World Cup qualifying encounter according to the latest betting odds. The +650 means that Lesotho are seen as having the lowest probability of succeeding.
There’s the chance to wager Benin at -108 on the Asian Handicap -1 market. This means a refund if they only win by one, although a 2+ goal victory over Lesotho would see a full payout.
Under 2.5 Goals is operating at the shortest price for those anticipating two or less goals. The Both Teams to Score No wager is -175 and it’s perfect if you anticipate that one side or more will fail to score by the full-time whistle.
