Bahrain vs Turkmenistan Prediction: Expect a dominant performance from the home side

This international friendly match between Bahrain and Turkmenistan will take place at the Police Officers Club Stadium in Bahrain. Once again, Bahrain is an enormous favorite in this competition, whereas Turkmenistan is an underdog on the road.

After suffering a loss at the hands of Kuwait in a match that concluded with a score of 1-3, Bahrain will enter this match with the goal of getting back on the winning track. After just 5 minutes of play in that match, Bahrain found themselves down when Ahmed Eid Al Dhafiri scored a goal and put it in the back of the net. But two goals scored by Shabaib Al Khaldi in the second half were enough to give Kuwait, their opponents, the victory. In the meantime, a goal scored by Abdulrahman Yousef Salem in the 72nd minute of that encounter could only help Bahrain cut the deficit that they were facing. Bahrain enters this match with a record of two wins and three losses in their most recent five matches. Their victories came against Syria and Radnicki Beograd, but they also suffered defeats at the hands of Palestine and Oman.

Turkmenistan has not been performing particularly well as of late, and as they head into this match, they will most certainly be hoping for a better outcome. Turkmenistan's most recent encounter was against Indonesia, and they ended up losing by a score of 2-0. The goals scored by Dendi Sulistyawan in the first half and Egy Maulana Vikri in the second half were the decisive factors in that match. Turkmenistan have not been victorious in any of their previous six matches, playing to just one draw over that space of time while suffering defeat in five of their other matches leading up to this one.

The home team appears to be the superior side here, and there is no doubt that they will aim to earn another win. However, while Turkmenistan is just too bad, I do not think they can do well enough to avoid allowing goals. Therefore, a win for Bahrain and betting on many goals is the best option here.
