Tajikistan vs Uzbekistan Prediction 28 April 2024
Match Preview
On April 28, the national teams of Tajikistan and Uzbekistan will compete for the bronze medals of the Asian Futsal Cup. The match will take place at the "Bangkok Arena" in the capital of Thailand. The Uzbeks, with a more star-studded lineup, are considered the clear favorites. Will they live up to this status?
For the first time, Tajikistan has earned the right to compete for the bronze medals at the Asian Cup, which is certainly an achievement worth congratulating. Regardless of the outcome of the upcoming match, the team will count this tournament as a success. In the semi-finals, they were very close to triumph, but Thailand was luckier in the penalty shootout. “Qualifying for the World Championship is a huge success for us, but there is still a match for third place. Uzbekistan is a very serious opponent, however, we are only setting our sights on victory,” said Payrav Vahidov, the head coach of the "Persian lions".
Tajikistan wins with a handicap of +1.5 in 10 consecutive matches at the Asian Cup. You can bet on this outcome at 2.08.
Uzbekistan is the third strongest Asian team after Iran and Japan. In the last four editions of the Asian Cup, they consistently reached the semi-finals, winning bronze twice and silver once. In the final of their home tournament in 2016, the Uzbeks lost to Iran, and in the semi-finals of the current tournament, they were again stopped by the Iranians. Venancio Lopez's guys put up a fight with the favorite, losing only in the penalty shootout. “We spent a lot of energy, so the main thing now is to recover for the game against Tajikistan. We will do everything possible to end the campaign on a winning note,” said the disappointed Spanish specialist.
The total less than 6.5 was played in 5 consecutive matches of Uzbekistan at the Asian Cup. The bet that no more than 6 goals will be scored in the match is valued at 1.4.
In our opinion, sportbooks underestimate Tajiks. Yes, the opponent is more experienced and skilled, but these guys are capable of giving a fight to anyone. We consider the handicap of Tajikistan (+2.5) at 1.51 as the best option for placing a bet.
