Expert Betting Tips
Tunisia's impressive track record in this competition speaks for itself, having emerged victorious once before. Their defensive prowess is second to none, having kept a clean sheet in their last four games. Namibia, on the other hand, has been struggling to find their rhythm in recent matches and were fortunate to make it to this campaign. Despite being dominated by local players, they have a standout star in Peter Shalulile, who has scored an impressive sixteen goals since his debut. However, Tunisia is not one to take their opponents lightly, and with Seifeddine Jaziri and Youssef Msakni leading the charge, their sights are set on nothing less than winning the tournament.
Tunisia look scary on the paper, but Namibia can’t be written off. We expect the Atlas Lions to get off to a flying start with a win and under 2.5 goals for 2.47.
We anticipate a halftime victory for Tunisia here for 1.94.
This game will witness less than two goals for 1.57.
Good luck!
