Verdict
BT4Y analyst view
Under 2.5 Goals is a sensible choice given both teams' recent defensive discipline and moderate attacking output. Benin's strong defensive record and the low-scoring history between these sides suggest a match unlikely to produce many goals. The tactical approach in friendlies often prioritizes structure, reinforcing the likelihood of a tight, low-scoring game.
The main risk is that friendly matches can sometimes produce unexpected attacking openness or experimental tactics that increase goal chances beyond recent trends.
