Three points on the line and a story to write — Argentina host Cape Verde Islands.
A FIFA World Cup fixture between Argentina and Cape Verde Islands. Here's what the numbers and form tell us ahead of kick-off.
L. Messi has been Argentina's spearhead — 35 goals and 23 assists in 31 appearances, averaging 2.58 shots on target per game. Whoever leads Cape Verde Islands's line will have a job on against that profile.
Marginal call: Argentina at just 0%. With the draw at 0%, this is anyone's game. Brave punters might fancy Argentina, but the sensible money says hedge. We're calling it 1-0.
The bookmakers have priced this match fairly. Our model doesn't see a big edge in the match result market.
Don't expect a goalfest. Argentina average 2.5 goals per game and Cape Verde Islands manage 0.7. Combined that's just 3.2. Our model gives over 2.5 goals only a 1% chance. Under 2.5 is the play.
Argentina are the complete package right now. Scoring 2.5 and conceding just 0.0 per game. They're dominant at both ends, the kind of side that controls matches and suffocates opponents. Cape Verde Islands prefer to keep things tight (0.7 conceded per game) and nick a goal on the break. Patience will be key for Argentina against this setup. Both sides keep clean sheets regularly. This could be a tight, low-block affair where the first goal is decisive.
