Bafana Bafana vs The Cranes Betting TipsWhen scanning all the markets on offer in this game, there are some enticing punts you cannot ignore. Here are some of the best to consider when betting on South Africa vs. Uganda in the AFCON Qualifiers with one of South Africa’s most trusted and experienced Online Gaming Operators.Top Tips to Tilt the Odds in Your Favour:

• In every meeting between the two African countries, a goal or more has been scored; a punt for both teams to score @2.55 is a good shout.
• An even better wager that’s more daring to place is for South Africa to win and both teams to score at 4.50.
• In the last Bafana victory, they scored three past the Cranes while conceding two. A shout for there to be over 2.5 goals at 2.23 is another odd to consider.
• Because Uganda has only managed to score one to two goals in their last five outings and they are missing a few first-team selections in the squad, a wager to consider placing is Uganda to score under 0.5 goals, with the odds standing at 1.66.
• A long-shot call, but not an impossible winning bet, is for Uganda to score first. Although SA have lost none of their meetings against Put’s men, they have actually conceded first against the visitors in two of the four fixtures. Uganda’s odds of scoring first are 8.50, while South Africa’s odds of scoring first are 3.20.
• The previous betting opportunity influences the next punt, which is a goal scored in both halves. This fixture has enjoyed goals in both halves in the previous meetings between the pair. The odds for this wager stand at 1.93 if you opt for yes.
