New Zealand vs India prediction
New Zealand come into this one on the back of a run of just one win in their last nine matches inside 90 minutes, including a poor FIFA World Cup campaign in which they lost three from three in their group over the summer.
India, under the management of Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, most recently entertainingly defeated Pakistan in the South Asian Football Federation Championship last week. That ended what was a seven-match winless run of form for the Indians.
Despite managing to defeat Pakistan the other day, this is a major step up in quality of opposition and New Zealand should get themselves a rare victory outside of OFC football in Auckland.
New Zealand vs India tip: New Zealand to win
