As part of one of the matches of the Maurice Revello tournament, the players of the Ivorian and Panamanian youth teams will come face to face. Which of the opponents will get the victory in this match? Our sports portal evaluates the chances of the national teams to succeed.
Ivory Coast (under 23)
The Ivorian team has a good personnel potential. So the current composition of the national team looks promising. "Elephants" are a very strong team, with an excellent attacking line. African youth teams can always surprise, repeatedly showing solid football even with favorites. This year, the Ivorians were able to hold 3 friendly matches, in which they were able to defeat Morocco (3:2) and Togo (3:0), and also painted a world match with Uzbekistan (0:0).
Panama (under 23 years old)
The Panamanian national team is a mystery team. This team does not have stars in its composition, but the team is able to give battle to any opponent. But in this match, the team will defend, taking into account the level of the opponent. Panamanians do not differ in the stability of results, and the defense team makes mistakes too often. Last year, Panama held meetings with the Comoros (4:1) and Saudi Arabia (4:2), defeating opponents in beautiful matches.
Statistics and figures:
- The hosts are the favorites of the meeting;
- Ivorians have not lost in 8 consecutive matches;
- Panama has a 2-match winning streak;
- Previously, the rivals did not meet each other.
Forecast
I think that in this meeting the Ivorians will be able to defeat their opponent already at the end of the first half. Our bet will also be in favor of a productive game. The teams' attack is in great shape, and this will affect the result.
