APWin Prediction

Under 2.5 Goals

APWin experts have analysed the main betting markets and selected high-value bets.

👉 Our prediction is: Etincelles win or draw

Our top betting tip is Etincelles to win or draw on the Double Chance market. What that means is Etincelles, the home team, must win or draw for the bet to win, and we feel strongly that the match will end in one of those two outcomes.

We simply don't see Etincelles losing to Gicumbi. More than the gulf in quality between the two sides which is clear to see in the statistics, we also have a lot of belief in Etincelles's ability to make home advantage count in this match.

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

Gicumbi will head in to face Etincelles with a tough task as the away side. Their recent results and performances have been far from impressive, but in our opinion, they are being a bit too underestimated.

We are tipping Gicumbi to win the first half because we see decent value in their odds. They still possess enough quality to cause some concern against Etincelles, at least until half-time.
