Benin vs Nigeria Prediction
Why we picked this for Benin vs Nigeria
For this African Cup Nations fixture we go with Over 2.5 goals for Benin vs Nigeria, at 89% confidence. In their last 5 matches, Benin's games produced 1.8 goals on average, 2 of them over 2.5. Nigeria's games averaged 2.8, with 2 of 5 over the line. Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 4 of the 10 recent games went over 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Over 2.5.
Past meetings don't decide it either way, with 1 of the last 2 ending over 2.5. At 89%, most of the recent evidence lands on this side of the line, which makes it one of our stronger calls. Final score: 1-1. The pick lost.
