Expert Betting Tips
Angola have recorded four victories against Mauritius over their last four meetings. Their previous two encounters ended in a (1-0) win for Angola. Mauritius can’t make it out of the group stage, considering how they play their first match. They will face a more desperate Angola side who must secure maximum points here to stand a chance of making it out of the group; bet on a home win and over 1.5 goals for 1.86.
We expect both sides to settle for a total of under 2.5 goals for 1.78.
Angola might even secure a halftime win here for 1.71.
Good luck!
