Morocco will look to extend their winning run to four games when they take on Sudan in the opening match of their World Cup qualifying campaign. Morocco are seen as favourites to win Group I, but they can’t afford any complacency in Thursday’s qualifier.

Angola

Egypt will look to get off to a flying start to their World Cup qualifying campaign when they take on Angola at June Air Defence Stadium. The Pharaohs failed to impress at the 2018 FIFA World Cup, with the team losing each of their three group games, and, no doubt, they are eager to make amends for the unsuccessful campaign.

Djibouti

Algeria and Djibouti take on each other in a David-vs-Goliath clash at Stade Mustapha Tchaker. The Desert Warriors are seen as No. 1 favourites to win Group A, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the minors. Since all Benrahma, Mahrez, and Slimani have been named in the Algeria squad, anything but a routine home win would be a major surprise.

Lithuania and Northern Ireland face each other at LFF stadionas in the 2022 World Cup qualifier.

World Cup Betting Stats and Data

Our World Cup betting analysis draws on data from recent editions of the tournament to highlight consistent patterns and team performance metrics. The competition has averaged around 2.6 goals per match across its last five editions, with BTTS outcomes in roughly 48% of fixtures and clean sheets recorded in about 40%. While the group stage often produces higher-scoring matches due to open play and mismatched teams, World Cup finals tend to be tighter, averaging fewer than 2.5 goals per game as tactical caution and defensive discipline dominate. These insights, combined with current team form, player fitness, and pre-tournament momentum, form the basis of our data-driven soccer betting tips and forecasts.
