Syria v Myanmar Tips

Syria and Myanmar have won both of their opening games, but Syria are the better side and should make it three in a row here.

Syria is obviously the better side here given the bookies' pick and the better history. However, comparing recent forms, it would seem Myanmar has been slightly better in terms of runs in recent games, having 3 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss only, as opposed to Syria's 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses. Normally, Syria should have no trouble securing a win here, but looking at last year's head-to-head, it appears that Myanmar managed to hold Syria in a 1-1 draw before. That said, I would dare pick a draw here again, perhaps a 0-0 this time around.

Both sides have won in both of their opening two group matches. However, Myanmar looks good value to win this match as they're 3-1-1 in their last five played, while Syria lost two of their last five games.

Over 2.5 goals looks like the value bet at 1.40. Syria have scored 13 goals and conceded 4 in their last 5 home matches. They can score 3 goals against Myanmar. They have scored 5 goals and conceded 14 in their last 5 away matches. They will struggle.

Myanmar have two consecutive matches with under 2.5 goals against Singapore and Pakistan. I must say that one of the last two matches between Syria and Myanmar finished with under 2.5 goals. Syria also have two matches with under 2.5 goals in their last four matches.

Syria and Myanmar score and allow a goal per group game on average. Both teams can score in this game. Goal/Goal.
