Our Predictions
Zimbabwe have never lost to Lesotho in a competitive away match, and the odds (1.85) mark them as favorites. Lesotho have struggled at home in this campaign, losing all home games, while Zimbabwe seek their first win.
Recent low-scoring records for both teams and 6 out of 9 Lesotho matches finishing under 2.5 suggest a tighter contest. Under 2.5 at 1.53 has strong value for a likely defensive match-up.
Zimbabwe struggles to score (just 6 goals in qualifying), and Lesotho have only netted 8. Both teams to score 'No' is favored at 1.62 odds, backing a clean sheet for one side.
