Based on the analysis, it’s hard to predict the winner of this match, but we have to admit that a tie is a possible result, especially since both teams have strong defenses and the match is very important. Both teams are playing great defense, but because of how crucial this game is and the fact that any goal scored could lead to elimination for the other team, we expect to see a close match with at least 3 goals.
