Georgia vs Cape Verde Betting Tips - Under 2.5 Goals

A likely tight but competitive friendly fixture should be expected at the Boris Paichadze Dinamo Arena on Sunday in a matchup between two evently matched nations. 

An in-form Georgia return to action in search of a fourth successive victory after securing a narrow 1:0 friendly win against the Faroe Islands on Thursday. Luka Lochoshvili's early goal proved the difference in a low-key encounter in Tbilisi. 

Willy Sagnol's side have shown plenty of quality over the past year, with a destructive 9:1 aggregate win against Armenia in their nations league playoff in March demonstrating the improvements made by the Crusaders under the Frenchman´s leadership.

However, with star forwards Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Georges Mikautadze not available for selection this weekend, the Georgians could struggle to see-off a Cabo Verde side that has also made significant strides in the past 12 months.

Bubista's men make the trip to Kutaisi unbeaten in four matches after a comfortable 3:0 win in a closed-door friendly against Malaysia in March. The Blue Sharks lost just one of their last six matches, including a 1:1 draw against Egypt in a World Cup qualifier last November. 

Low-scoring outcomes have been a common theme in recent Cape Verde matches. Seven of their last nine games finished with under 2.5 goals scored, and I expect more of the same this weekend.

With Georgia seeing under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last six home games, another low-scoring contest seems likely, particularly in the absence of the hosts key forwards.

Under 2.5 goals is my best bet for Sunday's international friendly fixture.
