Nations around the globe are finalising their preparations for the fast approaching FIFA World Cup, including many set to feature in international friendly fixtures later today as they warm up for the tournament.
Hungary vs Finland
Hungary head into this fixture having won three, drawn two and lost just one of their last six matches, while Finland have won two and lost four of their last six games.
Furthermore, Hungary have won three of the last four meetings with Finland, leading us to expect a win for the home country.
Hungary to win, 1.58 – 5GPFS8B
Paraguay vs Nicaragua
Paraguay, who have been drawn alongside USA, Turkey and Australia in Group D of the World Cup, saw their two-game winning run come to an end as they narrowly lost 2-1 to Morocco in their first friendly last weekend.
Paraguay will be eager to get back to winning ways ahead of the tournament, and they will fancy their chances against a Nicaragua side that have won just one of their last nine games, alongside six defeats.
Furthermore, Nicaragua have conceded 18 goals during that run, and with their defensive vulnerability in mind, we expect a dominant Paraguay performance that ends with a comfortable win and over 2.5 goals scored.
Paraguay & over 2.5 goals, 1.52 – 5GPFXNX
Moldova vs Bulgaria
Moldova have failed to win any of their last 13 matches across all competitions, while Bulgaria have won three and lost only one of their last four games heading into this clash, leaving the away side in far superior form.
Given the major contrast in recent results leading into this game, we expect a comfortable win for Bulgaria.
Bulgaria to win, 2.00 – 5GPG7SP
Russia vs Burkina Faso
Russia have scored 13 and conceded seven in their last eight matches, averaging at 2.5 per game, while Burkina Faso have scored 16 and conceded eight in their last eight games, averaging at three goals per game.
Given the high-scoring nature of matches involving these two teams, we anticipate this match to deliver plenty of goalscoring action, with over 1.5 goals expected.
Over 1.5 goals, 1.21 – 5GPGBHF
