Botswana vs Cape Verde Betting Tips -  Under 2.5 Goals

A low-scoring contest could be on the cards as Botswana hosts Cape Verde with both nations still very much in the hunt to qualify for the AFCON finals.

Five days on from Botswana´s 1:0 win in Cape Verde, qualification for the upcoming AFCON finals remains the target for both nations. After three matches in Group C, Egypt leads the pack with nine points, while all three of their rivals - including both of these nations - are currently tied with three points each.

Botswana had failed to win nine of ten previous matches before their surprise away win last week and now with home advantage, could boost their qualification chances with another three points.

Still, Cape Verde will be determined to bounce back, and having won five of their nine previous matches, are in much better overall form than the home side.

At this venue, Didier Gomes Da Rosa´s men have failed to win four of their last five matches, while three of their four most recent home contests also saw under 2.5 goals scored.

Adding further confidence to our under 2.5 goals pick on Tuesday, Cape Verde have seen fewer than than three goals scored in seven of their last nine matches, including last week´s 1:0 defeat at Estádio Nacional de Cabo Verde.

Ultimately, with both nations fighting to qualify, and considering their recent numbers, a low-scoring outcome with under 2.5 goals seems likely on Tuesday.
