THE PREDICTION
New Zealand were given something of a scare against a solid Lebanon outfit until Joey Manu came to the fore and ensured his side claimed the win thanks to a stunning individual performance. Michael Maguire will be looking for more from his side as they take on Jamaica in what is likely to be an extremely one-sided affair. The Reggae Warriors were unable to cross the whitewash in what was a heavy loss to Ireland in their opener and the class of the Kiwis is going to be evident here. There is a huge gulf between the two and New Zealand have to be fancied to earn a huge victory, covering the -70 handicap in the process.
