LiontipsUSA vs. New Zealand. Prediction (odds 2.00) and bets on a friendly match
Command Analysis
Current form
The USA continues to disappoint with its results after a resounding failure at the home America's Cup. On September 7, the Americans lost to Canada in a friendly match (1:2), although they were the favorites in that match. Now they will have to play an even less dangerous opponent. If this time the "stars and stripes" suffer a disaster, then we can safely say that a game crisis has set in, and not write it off as random misunderstandings.
Disqualifications and injuries
All national team players are in action.
Interesting trends for betting
USA has conceded goals in three games in a row
The Americans have scored in four of their last five home games.
Estimated composition
Turner - Fossey, Mackenzie, Trusty, Wylie - Morris, Cardoso, de la Torre - Sargent, Pepi, Cowell
Current form
New Zealand reigns in Oceania. There are no worthy competitors there and the victory in the sixth Nations Cup is a perfect example of this. It is rare to play with opponents like the USA, so the guests are unlikely to treat the upcoming match as a friendly, because there is an excellent chance to learn a lot of experience from a stronger opponent.
A few days ago there was a friendly game with Mexico. In that match there was a big defeat (0:3). Of course this time there is a great desire to perform better.

1.88Tip and bets
The USA is clearly not at the peak of its form right now and New Zealand understands this perfectly well, so it will do everything possible to at least not leave the field without scoring a goal. Considering the team's performance, such a development is more than realistic. Moreover, the history of face-to-face meetings speaks of three matches played and in all of them both the hosts and the guests managed to score.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 2.00
Bet on the outcome
Bookmakers have the USA as the clear favourite. We strongly disagree with this opinion. The hosts are not in the form to confidently win even against New Zealand. Most likely, if they manage to win, the triumph will be minimal.
Our betting tip is Asian handicap (+1.5) on New Zealand with odds of 1.84
Bet on corners
It is unlikely that the teams will work on their defense in this friendly game. Most likely, the game will be played with a fair number of corner flag serves.
Our prediction is total over 9.5 corners with odds of 2.42
