LiontipsArgentina - Zambia: betting tip (cf 1.75) and bets on the friendly match
Command Analysis
Current form
Due to the cancellation of the Finals with Spain, the Argentines had to urgently change their calendar during the current training camp. In the previous friendly, with not the brightest game, the Argentines defeated Mauritania with a score of 2:1. Clearly, the fans were unhappy with the game, today, according to Lionel Scaloni, Messi will appear in the squad, perhaps this moment will allow them to win a more confident victory. At the moment, the national team is on a winning streak of four matches in friendly matches. Argentina suffered its last defeat in the final round of qualification for the World Cup from Ecuador (1:2), that meeting had no tournament significance.

Tip and bets
The Argentines did not have the most confident match against Mauritania the day before and obviously today they will try to form a more confident victory, especially since Messi is expected to appear in the squad. Zambia did not plan to play this sparring match, it was not possible to collect all the strongest players, and only 18 players are listed in the application. And even with the strongest squad, the African national team is noticeably inferior in class to its upcoming opponent. We can recall how the Zambians lost 0-5 to Russia in sparring. We expect the hosts to defeat the opponent without any problems today.
Our betting tip is that Argentina will win with an Asian handicap (-3) for a coefficient of 1.75
Bet on the total
Zambia's defense is not very reliable, and today we still have to play with a less than optimal squad. Obviously, in this scenario, the Argentines will have a lot of chances at someone else's goal. We expect that even the hosts alone will be able to break through the total for the game.
The second bet is a total of more than 3.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.65
Betting on corners
There is no doubt that the Argentines will spend almost the entire match at someone else's gate. There is a high probability that with such a game, the hosts will surely win on the corners. Moreover, the opponent was inferior in this indicator in three of the four previous matches.
Prediction – Argentina wins on corners with a handicap (-5.5) with a coefficient of 1.75
