After suffering a 2-1 loss against Mauritania in their previous match in the International Friendships competition, Madagascar will be hoping to have better luck this time around. For Mauritania, the goals were scored by Souleymane Anne in the 28th minute of the match and Hemeya Tanjy in the 73rd minute of the contest. On the other hand, Madagascar were unable to pull one back until the 90+1 minute, when Anicet did brilliantly to decrease the deficit that they were facing. In recent matches, it has been an extremely rare occurrence for Madagascar to maintain a scoreless record. They have conceded goals in 5 of their past 6 matches, bringing their total number of goals allowed this season to 8. This will be a cause for concern for them. Madagascar now head into this contest without a win in their last five matches.
Benin - DWDLD
Following a 1-1 tie with Sierra Leone the previous week, Benin will come into this matchup with some momentum. In the encounter, Sierra Leone scored the game's first goal in the 32nd minute when Mohamed Buya Turay struck the ball to put his team in front. Cedric Hountonji scored the goal that tied the game for Benin in the 90+9th minute of additional time. Benin had not been victorious in any of their previous three matches, which brings them into this one winless. In their last five encounters, Benin has seen at least one of their shots on goal result in a goal eight times. They have conceded a total of six goals throughout the same matches due to their defensive struggles.
Expert Betting Tips
There has been very little to choose between these two teams as of late, and we have every reason to believe that they will perform far better today after going a series of games without a victory. Nevertheless, I believe that both teams will concentrate their efforts on playing defense here, as they will look to avoid losing. Therefore, it is anticipated that this match will be relatively low-scoring and quite close throughout, with a draw being the most desirable result.
