San Marino vs Northern Ireland. Euro 2024 qualifier prediction
The San Marino national team will play against Northern Ireland on March 23 in the qualifying match for Euro 2024. What bets and forecasts have our experts prepared?
The hosts have only one draw and 75 defeats. Moreover, representatives of this tiny state scored only eight times, while conceding 340. The chance to change the situation today is almost zero, which confirmed the defeat in the last official game from Estonia (0:4).
Now a new manager is at the helm - Michael O'Neill is back for a second term at the head of the "Green and White Army". O'Neill is emphatically wary of complacency ahead of this clash, stating that "we will prepare for San Marino just as we would prepare for Germany." This consistent approach should give them a good chance of maintaining their flawless head-to-head record and raising hopes of reaching their first major tournament since 2016.
Our prediction is an Asian handicap (-3) for Northern Ireland and we bet on it through the bookmaker Mostbet with a coefficient of 2.15.
We assume that in this duel an abundance of attacks awaits us and the release of the main star of San Marino after an injury is unlikely to change the balance of power on the football field. We expect the traditional 4-5 five unanswered goals against the hosts.
Second bet - total over 4.5 goals for 3.40.
