Nigeria vs Dominican Republic Prediction: The opponents are at completely different levels

Prediction for the match between Nigeria and the Dominican Republic, which will take place on May 21. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Nigeria is a regular participant in the FIFA Youth World Cup. The Whites and Greens have not missed a World Cup since 1983 and reached the final in 1989 and 2005 but lost both times. They have been eliminated in the first round of the playoffs in the last three tournaments in a row, so we can now expect them to advance from the group. In addition, the Nigerians won the bronze medal at the recent Africa Cup of Nations by beating Tunisia 4:0 in the consolation final. Ahead of the 2023 FIFA World Cup starts, they played a friendly against Colombia that ended in a 3:3 draw.

The Dominican Republic has never played in a Youth World Cup before. Moreover, even they failed to qualify for the CONCACAF World Cup for a long time, taking a break from 1982 to 2018, before they played a tournament in the USA, where they played surprisingly well, finishing ninth out of 34 competitors. Alas, the Dominicans' recent results have left much to be desired. In 2023, they played five friendlies, losing all five times, with a goal difference of 2:14. They will also be among the main underdogs at the 2023 World Cup.

The Nigerian and Dentirelyentirelyepublic teams are competing at completely different levels. While the Whites participated in all recent World Cups and always broke through the group stage and sometimes even made it among the medalists, the Blues and Whites made it to the World Cup for the first time in their history. Of course, their tremendous experience should help the Africans to succeed in their forthcoming clash. Besides, the Dominicans are approaching the start of the tournament in terrible form, having lost their last seven matches in a row by a combined score of 2:24. As a result, we should probably wager on Nigeria's victory with a handicap (-2.5).

The Dominican Republic has a poor attacking game, with only two goals in their last seven games, but they will be forced to run away and try to turn things around at the 2023 World Cup. For this reason, special attention should be paid to the attacking moves of the Whites, who are in good condition, as was confirmed by the recent match against Colombia, which was a brilliant 3:3 draw. Now we'd prefer to bet on Nigeria's individual total over 2.5, and we'd also like to bet on the total over 3.5.
