Our prediction is: Vanuatu to win the 1st half

Vanuatu to win the first half is our top tip for this match. The visitors have the tools on both ends of the pitch to give their hosts some serious trouble, which makes them such an intriguing bet.

Online bookmakers have given good 1.64 odds for over 2.5 goals, and we fancy the chances of that bet paying off thanks to the tremendous attacking ability of the two teams.
