Expert Betting Tips
The D.R. Congo are just too favoured here, and I expect them to dominate without a doubt. However, South Sudan's major weakness so far in this qualifier has been in the defensive end, and they will need a lot of work to do. In the meantime, D.R. Congo's output in attack have not been too promising, but considering the side they play here, I believe they will have a good chance to dominate, as they should win with ease.
Our first option is over 2.5 goals with odds at 1.85 on 1Xbet.
Our second option is over 8 corners with odds at 1.90 on Bet365.
Our last option is a win for D.R. Congo and over 2.5 goals with odds at 1.83 on Betway.
