Haiti vs Denmark
FIFA Women’s World Cup
Date: 1 August 2023, Tuesday
Kick-off at 12:00 UK / 13:00 CET
Venue: Perth Rectangular Stadium (Perth).
Despite failing to claim their maiden World Cup point(s), Haiti can be classified as one of the most pleasant surprises of the inaugural two rounds of the tournament in Australia and New Zealand.
The tiny CONCACAF nation offered fantastic resistance against both England and China so far in the competition, losing both outings by a minimal 0-1 scoreline.
Haiti have by no means lost all chances of qualifying to the last 16 round. They need to beat Denmark on the final day and hope that England can justify their favorites’ tag in the other game of this group against China.
Nevertheless, beating Denmark will represent quite a big task for Nicolas Delepine’s men. They had a great opportunity to claim precious points on Friday when they had an extra woman on the pitch for more than 60 minutes of the affair against China.
Nonetheless, Haiti eventually had to settle for a 0-1 defeat, conceding a late penalty-kick goal on the occasion.
Denmark, on the other side, claimed a massive three-pointer on the opening day against China. They were then on the brink of taking a point from the clash against European champions England but Amalie Vangsgaard’s second-half strike only hit the bar as the Scandinavians ended up losing 0-1.
This Danish team generally play tight football under head coach Lars Sondergaard. None of the last five games they played in all competitions provided three or more goals.
Denmark are the favorites going into this one but Haiti left a very strong impression on us in the opening two games and we just see tremendous value in the sky-high 10.00 odds offered for their win here.
The main pick will be Haiti to win in +1.5 Asian Handicap at the odds of 1.90 while we also like the Under 2.5 goals FT bet at the 2.00 odds knowing that Denmark’s matches rarely produce goals fests.
