Head to Head

Gambia Form


The Gambia pocketed all the points in their FIFA World Cup qualifier against Kenya last weekend, winning 3-1.

The Gambia conceded after eight minutes of play against Kenya but quickly turned their fortunes around, scoring in the 12th, 26th, and 38th minutes of the match to lead 3-1 at the break. 

The Gambia had moments to extend their lead in the second half, but no more goals were added to their tally. 

The Gambia are in 4th place in Group F with seven points after seven rounds. They have won two, lost four, and drawn one.

The Scorpions have won two of their last five fixtures, including one defeat and two draws. They scored nine goals and conceded seven. 

The Gambia will be pleased with their latest result and will fancy their chances against a Burundi side that has stuttered in recent outings.

Burundi Form 


Burundi came away empty-handed in their FIFA World Cup qualifier against the Ivory Coast last weekend, losing 1-0.

Burundi did not have a great start against the Ivory Coast, conceding in the third minute of the match.

Burundi failed to create any meaningful chances to equalise during the remainder of the contest. 

Burundi are 3rd in Group F with ten points from seven games. They have registered three victories, three defeats, and one draw.

The Swallows have won two of their last five fixtures, including two losses and one draw. They scored six goals and conceded two.

Burundi must produce a clinical display against the Gambia to secure all three points, but the going will be tough, as their opponents are in decent nick.
