USA vs Uzbekistan Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in the International Friendlies on Saturday, 9 September 2023.
USA had an average run in the Qatar World Cup last year. They advanced it till the knockouts and lost to Netherlands 3-1 ft. It is worth noting that they had an unbeaten streak since then across all competitions before losing 1-2 in penalties to Panama in Gold Cup.
They are set to face Uzbekistan in a friendly match this Saturday. Going on, Uzbekistan also had an unbeaten form before losing 0-1 to Iran in a Nations Cup fixture. However, their opponents were not that stronger as that faced by USA of late.
This will be marked as the first head to head meetings between these two teams.
A penalty shootout defeat against Panama in the Gold Cup semis ended a seven-game long unbeaten streak of USA at home. However, their displays look impressive enough.
On the other side, Uzbekistan won the past three road trips in a row but it is worth noting that they had a four-game losing streak before sealing victories in those. Moreover, the opponents in the last three matches were Turkmenistan, Cameroon and Maldives.
USA looks to have the upper hand comparing all these stats. Therefore, we are backing USA to seal a win on Saturday.
USA scored 14 goals in the last five home matches despite of facing opponents like Canada and Mexico. Their offensive line looks so strong. In that case, we expect plenty of goals in this match.
The offensive display of Uzbekistan looks perplexing. They have failed to score against teams like Jordan, Georgia but have scored one against Sweden in their recent away matches. Such a display forces us to leave the BTTS field unanswered.
USA’s impressive recordings at home, is more than enough to back them against this Uzbekistan side. We like to place a Ht/Ft win for USA at 1.95 odds as the main tip.
For the second tip, we like to place the Over 2.5 goals tip at 1.70 odds considering the offensive display of USA at home.
