Expert Betting Tips

The Malawian side are dominated mainly by teams playing in their local leagues, compared with the visitors, who boast of players playing in foreign leagues. Malawi's win against Liberia would have given the hosts some sort of confidence; however, Tunisia would be the better side here, considering the quality of their squad. We believe the Atlas Lions will exert dominance here; bet on an away win for 1.65.

We expect a BTTS No here, as Tunisia will be strong defensively.

Tunisia might even secure a halftime victory here for 2.25.

Good luck!
