Patterns & Trends
Over/Under markets performed with high accuracy, especially “over 1.5” and “under 3.5” totals. This points to reliable assessment of attacking and defensive capabilities in most fixtures.
1X2 predictions struggled, with both finalized results missing the mark as underdogs and less-favored hosts upset predictions. This emphasizes the unpredictability of outcomes when evenly matched teams meet.
Both teams to score predictions were strong except for one match; generally, games featuring obvious mismatches (e.g., Kenya vs Seychelles, Benin vs Lesotho) conformed to expectations with one team failing to score due to offensive weaknesses.
A trend of defensive solidity appeared in qualifiers with low-scoring matches and few high-scoring thrillers outside a handful of dominant wins.
Matches tipped for over 2.5 and especially over 3.5 goals often featured clear attacking strengths or lopsided contests, with those teams able to impose their styles and score freely.
Overall, predictions anchored in recent attacking and defensive records—notably in totals and both teams to score markets—saw strong validation, while outright winner markets proved riskier amid competitive parity and surprise results.
