What is our Argentina vs Benin prediction?
Our prediction for this match: Argentina 3 - 1 Benin
Argentina vs Benin Preview
Argentina aim to build on back-to-back victories over Bolivia and Burkina Faso when they welcome Benin to Estadio Monumental. The atmosphere is expected to be special as Lionel Messi prepares to play his final game for the national team, giving La Albiceleste even more motivation to put on a show. Giuliano Simeone is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute against Burkina Faso, while Lautaro Martinez should keep his place up front. Argentina have been outstanding at home, winning each of their last seven matches while averaging 3.57 goals per game.
Benin, meanwhile, will try to spoil Argentina’s party after beating Mauritania 2-1 in their latest AFCON qualifier. Fofana and Diallo are both in line for recalls after making an impact from the bench, but the visitors face an enormous challenge against the world champions. Benin have won just one of their last five away matches, conceding 2.00 goals per game during that run, while their overall scoring average stands at only 0.90.
Given Argentina’s phenomenal home record and huge attacking advantage, we believe that there is big value in betting on Home Win, alongside Over 2.5 goals and Argentina Over 2.5 (the hosts’ 3.57-goal home average).
