Our prediction is: Nigeria win or draw

Going on the Double Chance market is a great way to get a much better shot at winning a bet. And our betting tip of taking Nigeria or draw in the Double Chance market is about as close to a safe bet as there is.

Based on their impressive home form this season, it's hard to see Nigeria not picking up at least a point in their own stadium. They only need to avoid defeat to Benin to win the Double Chance bet, and we think they are more than up to the task.

Our prediction is: Nigeria to win

In all honesty, there is no other result we can foresee for this match other than Nigeria to win outright, which is our betting tip.

Nigeria's strong form this season, particularly at home, is hard to overlook, as are Benin's shaky overall results and performances of late. And we expect the two sides to play true to form when they meet for their upcoming match.
