Gamingtips Predictions – Honduras 1:0 El Salvador
Honduras looked very good against Haiti however prior to that, they scored just 2 goals in 4 games and conceded 4.
El Salvador fought hard against Trinidad & Tobago but prior to that match, they scored just 2 goals in 4 games and conceded 10.
Based on history and the fact that El Salvador have conceded on average over 2 goals per game in their last 4, Honduras are deserved favourites after an impressive performance against Haiti they may just sneak this game by a goal or two.
Honduras are currently 55th in FIFA’s World Rankings while El Salvador are 94th.
We should expect a low scoring affair given these two sides combined tally of 4 goals in over 720 minutes of football (Prior to game #1 matches).
