Niger vs Lesotho Prediction

Ranked 114th in the world, Niger come into this one on the back of a 1-0 defeat to Mauritania in June. That means that Niger have now endured a six-match winless run of form since performing well in FIFA World Cup qualification.

Lesotho, who ranked 146th in the world, also succumbed to defeat in their most recent outing as they were beaten 4-0 by Kenya over the summer to mean that they have now won just one of their last six and just two of their last 12 games.

Niger will be aiming to build on their strong performances in FIFA World Cup qualification and they would have to be viewed as favourites here.

Niger vs Lesotho Tip: Niger to win & under 3.5 goals
