Oppose a High-Scoring Game

We can make an argument for betting Under 2.5 when it comes to Total Goals. The stats imply that Mali and Rwanda could fall short of this total and the price of -141 looks a value one.

Continue reading for our complete Mali vs Rwanda betting analysis, delivering an in-depth look at our main match prediction, as well as our correct score prediction and bet builder tips.

Main Match Prediction

For those that agree with our view that this will be low-scoring, take the -141 when it comes to Under 2.5 Goals. We don’t think this Africa Cup of Nations qualifying encounter will be a goalfest.

Key stats supporting our main match prediction (competitive matches):

  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in 8 of the last 10 Mali games.
  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in 4 of the last 5 Mali games.
  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in 14 of the last 20 Rwanda games.
  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in 6 of the last 10 Rwanda games.

Getting the lowdown on injuries and studying the Africa Cup of Nations qualifying form guide are important duties ahead of making football predictions. We also place great emphasis on the stats and a data-led approach can sometimes be effective.

Under 2.5 Probability

According to the latest odds, there’s a 58.5% likelihood of our pick winning. Based on our tipsters research, we calculate the actual probability to be 65-70%. It’s the reason why we are recommending this bet.

Looking for Bigger Odds?

If you want to boost your Under 2.5 Goals selection at a bigger price, then there’s an opportunity to combine this pick with BTTS No. A Total Goals & Both Teams to Score bet can often make appeal.

Betting Sites Running Scared of Mali Victory

Mali have been priced up as the overwhelming -345 favourites for this Africa Cup of Nations qualifying clash. This means the bookies give them a 78% chance of claiming victory. If you want to get against the market leader, then you’re able to secure +1000 for Rwanda.

Mali -1.5 will pay out on the Asian Handicap if they beat Rwanda by two goals or more. This wager is available at -120 and this is a bigger price than if you backed them on the 1x2 market.

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. The Both Teams to Score No wager is -263 and it’s perfect if you anticipate that one side or more will fail to score by the full-time whistle.

Bettors love the flexibility that hundreds of markets provide and that is for every Africa Cup of Nations qualifying game. The best football betting sites ensure that their customers always have plenty of options.
