Venue: Neo GSP (Nicosia).
Cyprus were taken into consideration doomed final month once they visited Slovenia, their double hazard become at 2.15(!), very excessive for a double threat, that changed into my handiest tip, and it got here good, because the Cypriots managed to earn a factor. Actually, they took the lead within the first half and were given equalized inside the dying mins of the fit, gambling with 10, after having Grigoris Kastanos sent-off within the 66th minute. Cyprus are third within the organization table, on four factors. Norway and Bulgaria are leading, on 9 points every. The Cypriots are hosting both in recent times, however now not even wins can be sufficient to finish first. They want no longer simply to win both matches, but additionally each their rivals to drop points of their other fits nowadays. Realistically looking at their chances of finishing first, calling them even “few” feels… generous.
“Under 2.Five goals” felt like an apparent choice last month, whilst Bulgaria visited Norway, however wasn’t paying greater than 1.55. I gambled with Bulgaria’s double threat, however the Balkans didn’t deliver, no matter finishing the sport on extra attempts on course than Norway, and nearly 1/2 ball ownership. On nine factors from four suits, Bulgaria are second in the organization desk, no matter having as many points as the Norwegians. They beat them 1-0 in Sofia, lost 1-0 in Norway, so what topics the most now, is the intention difference in all institution suits. There, Bulgaria are at +2, and Norway at +three. The Bulgarians although have the closing recreation, in opposition to Slovenia, at domestic, while Norway are gambling on the road each their closing two video games.
