Expert Betting Tips
The reverse leg ended in a (1-0) victory for Esperance ST over Al Hilal Omurdman. The visitors are one of the best defensive teams in this tournament and are yet to concede since the tournament began. On the other hand, Al Hilal Omurdman have been below par this year. The Sudanese team have not been competing in their league this season following the unrest in their country. All their home games are either played in Tanzania or Libya. For this reason, we can’t guarantee them a victory, but we are confident they’ll not lose to the visitors; bet on a home win or draw and under 2.5 goals for 1.89.
We also expect both sides to settle for a halftime draw for 1.86.
We think the home side might get the first goal here for 1.95.
Good luck!
