Venezuela have another friendly scheduled for November. They will face Russia in Krasnodar on 17 November.
Match Result Prediction
Venezuela have covered the (+1.5) handicap in 25 of their last 26 matches in the specified tournament. This season, they have lost all five away matches, but that statistic does not show the margins of those defeats. The pick is therefore Venezuela - Handicap +1.5 at odds of 1.52*, rather than a bet on them to win or draw.
Total Goals Prediction
Fewer than 3.5 goals have been scored in 16 consecutive Venezuela matches in the specified tournament. This season, Venezuela have averaged 0.6 goals scored and 2.2 conceded per away match. There is no goalscoring data for the Basque Country, so the main argument here is Venezuela’s run. We’re backing Total Goals - Under 3.5 at odds of 1.40*.
Safer Bet
Venezuela have scored fewer than 1.5 goals in 13 of their last 14 matches in the specified tournament. They average 0.6 goals in away matches this season; the same figure is given for their last ten away matches. These figures support Venezuela Team Total Goals - Under 1.5 at odds of 1.20*.
*The odds are indicative and may vary between bookmakers.*
⭐ Match Prediction
Venezuela are going through a difficult spell. They missed the World Cup, and the squad is being rejuvenated. Recently, they have mostly played against Asian national teams. Their opponents have included Jordan, Japan, Uzbekistan, Australia and South Korea. Regardless of the opposition's level, Venezuela have sought to defend solidly - they have not conceded more than two goals in any of their last ten matches. They are still struggling in attack, however, scoring more than one goal only twice over the same period. The main bet for the match is Total Goals - Under 3.5. Predicted score: 2:1.
