General match analysis
Typ 1X2: 2. New Zealand scored three goals in two matches, but after leading with Egypt she lost 1:3 and has only one point. Belgium drew both matches and scored only one goal so far, so she needs significant improvement in her performance. The Belgians' individual quality and the need to win give them an advantage, but their current form does not allow us to take it for granted. Our independent rating is 19% for New Zealand, 24% for draw and 57% for Belgium. The most likely outcome profile is 1:2 or 0:2; the type has 57% and takes into account motivation, rotation and the course of the first two rounds. Status: SMALL BET
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Typ BTTS: yes. New Zealand scored three goals in two matches, but after leading with Egypt they lost 1:3 and have only one point. Belgium drew both matches and scored only one goal so far, so she needs significant improvement in her performance. The Belgians' individual quality and the need to win give them an advantage, but their current form does not allow us to take it for granted. New Zealand has shown that she can use direct attacks, and Belgium has not been completely stable in defensive transitions so far. The goal model gives 52% on BTTS Yes and 48% on BTTS No, with expected goals of 1.05 for New Zealand and 1.60 for Belgium. This is not a conclusion from the odds, but from the quality of the situations created, the style of the match and the needs of the table. Status: NOBET
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
Typ: Under 2.5. New Zealand scored three goals in two matches, but after leading with Egypt they lost 1:3 and have only one point. Belgium drew both matches and scored only one goal so far, so she needs significant improvement in her performance. The Belgians' individual quality and the need to win give them an advantage, but their current form does not allow us to take it for granted. The model gives 49% on Over 2.5 and 51% on Under 2.5, with xG New Zealand 1.05, Belgium 1.60 and 2.65 in total. On line 2.5, the goal of the weaker side is crucial: the result of 2:0 leaves the under, while 2:1 immediately moves the match to the over. A 1:2 or 0:2 profile explains why the advantage of the selected market side is not always large. Status: NOBET
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Typ HT/FT: 2/2. New Zealand scored three goals in two matches, but after leading with Egypt they lost 1:3 and have only one point. Belgium drew both matches and scored only one goal so far, so she needs significant improvement in her performance. The Belgians' individual quality and the need to win give them an advantage, but their current form does not allow us to take it for granted. Belgium may need time to break the low block, but the lead and victory scenario for the guests remains the highest. The highest tracks are 2/2 34%, X/2 20% and X/X 15%. The HT/FT distribution has been calibrated so that its final result is consistent with our 1X2: 19%–24%–57%. This is a high-variance market, so the stake should be lower than the base market.
