Bookies Expecting Tight Affair

The draw is currently trading at 2.75 if you think this World Cup qualifying clash will end all square, while Zimbabwe and Rwanda both have exactly the same betting odds of 2.75 as things stand.

A win for Rwanda would see a full payout on the Asian Handicap -0.25 option. You can get 2.28 that they overcome Zimbabwe going down this route and half stake refunded if it’s a draw.

Under 2.5 Goals is available as the favourite and a bet on this pick means that you don’t want more than two goals to be netted. If you think both teams will score, then BTTS Yes could appeal. Otherwise, you can back BTTS No as an alternative.
