The Gambia are set to face Burundi in a World Cup qualifier with both teams showing similar recent form: each has won 2 of their last 5 games. The Gambia, buoyed by a strong 3-1 victory over Kenya, are tipped to win as their attack looks promising, while Burundi must recover from a recent 1-0 defeat to Ivory Coast. Key bets are 'BTTS Yes,' 'Gambia/Over 2.5,' and a 'Gambia 2-1' correct score. Action points: watch for goals from both sides and monitor injury updates ahead of kickoff.

Head to Head


Burundi have a slight edge with one victory to none against the Gambia.   

Gambia Form


The Gambia pocketed all the points in their FIFA World Cup qualifier against Kenya last weekend, winning 3-1.

The Gambia conceded after eight minutes of play against Kenya but quickly turned their fortunes around, scoring in the 12th, 26th, and 38th minutes of the match to lead 3-1 at the break. 

The Gambia had moments to extend their lead in the second half, but no more goals were added to their tally. 

The Gambia are in 4th place in Group F with seven points after seven rounds. They have won two, lost four, and drawn one.

The Scorpions have won two of their last five fixtures, including one defeat and two draws. They scored nine goals and conceded seven. 

The Gambia will be pleased with their latest result and will fancy their chances against a Burundi side that has stuttered in recent outings. 

Gambia Team News & Injuries


Sheriff Sinyan, Yankuba Minteh, and Musa Barrow all scored in the first half against Kenya last weekend. 

Goalkeepers: Ebrima Jarju, Sheikh Sibi, Baboucarr Gaye
Defenders: Omar Colley, Abubacarr Sedi Kinteh, Momodou Lion Njie, Sheriff Sinyan, James Gomez, Alagie Saine, Sainey Sanyang, Joseph Ceesay, Muhammed Sanneh

Burundi Form 


Burundi came away empty-handed in their FIFA World Cup qualifier against the Ivory Coast last weekend, losing 1-0.

Burundi did not have a great start against the Ivory Coast, conceding in the third minute of the match.

Burundi failed to create any meaningful chances to equalise during the remainder of the contest. 

Burundi are 3rd in Group F with ten points from seven games. They have registered three victories, three defeats, and one draw.

The Swallows have won two of their last five fixtures, including two losses and one draw. They scored six goals and conceded two.

Burundi must produce a clinical display against the Gambia to secure all three points, but the going will be tough, as their opponents are in decent nick.
