The quest for a spot in the 2026 FIFA World Cup brings us an intriguing matchup between Gambia and Seychelles on June 8, 2024.
With both teams eager to claim their first points in the qualifiers, let’s analyze the predictions and betting tips for this game.
Match Preview
Gambia, known as the Scorpions, have had a challenging start to their qualifying campaign, sitting at the bottom of Group F with zero points after two games.
Their last outing saw them suffer a 3-2 defeat to Cameroon in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, highlighting their vulnerability in defense but also their potential to score.
Seychelles, nicknamed the Pirates, are also yet to open their account in the qualifiers and are positioned at the bottom of the standings.
They have struggled significantly, failing to score and conceding 14 goals in just two games. Their last competitive match was a heavy 5-0 defeat to Kenya.
This will be the first meeting between Gambia and Seychelles, setting the stage for a new rivalry in African football.
Predictions
Both teams have been on a losing streak, with Gambia losing their last five games and Seychelles losing six of their last seven.
Given the form of both teams and the fact that the match will take place in Morocco, depriving Gambia of home support, a low-scoring game is expected. The prediction is a goalless draw.
Betting Tips
Full-time Result – Draw. Considering the struggles of both teams, a draw seems the most likely outcome.
Both Teams to Score – No. With Seychelles yet to find the back of the net and Gambia’s inconsistent scoring, it’s probable that not both teams will score.
