👉 Our prediction is: Bay to win the 1st half

Our top betting tip for the Bay vs North Carolina Courage match is Bay to win the first half. While the half-time market is not one of the more well-known betting markets, it often offers better value odds than wins over 90 minutes.

We see this value in Bay, which has been in impressive form at home and regularly gets out to quick starts. They should have a favourable matchup against North Carolina Courage, who have had their share of struggles of late.

👉 Our prediction is: North Carolina Courage win or draw

Even though North Carolina Courage will be the away side in this matchup, we do not expect them to go down in defeat. We recommend betting on North Carolina Courage to win or draw in the Double Chance market, where a win or a draw will win the bet.

North Carolina Courage does have its share of flaws, but Bay has also looked quite vulnerable of late, and not even being at home might be enough for them to avoid dropping points to North Carolina Courage.
