Panama vs Tunisia Today’s Soccer Prediction
Panama
Panama has sold well at this finals, even if the results do not seem that way. Above all, the 0-3 draw against Belgium on the first group match day will be remembered and here especially the first half, in which one prepared the favorite with disciplined defensive work problems. In a group match two in a 1: 6 against England then even managed the first World Cup goal in history. Panama has thus drawn attention to itself and will give everything against Tunisia again. Of course you are the clear underdog against the last group opponent as well, especially since you have the weakest defense of the entire tournament with 9 goals conceded and averaged 4.5 hits per match. Accordingly, a bet in the form of an over / under bet would be worth considering. Of course, just as much for a defeat of the World Cup newcomer, which we see against Tunisia, especially in technical and individual terms as clearly inferior. Even physically, you seem to be unable to put the defensive tactics, the coach Hernan Gomez his team usually on the way, over 90 minutes to put into action. So one had also committed against the “Three Lions” and started quite courageously, even repeatedly tried to press the opponent under pressure to put and posing problems. However, they also acted somewhat too committed and over-motivated in terms of pressing, so that resulted in two penalties for the opponent as a result of rude attacks. Strengths in the game forward could be seen especially in standards, it was also a dormant ball, which helped Panama to a historic honor. Nevertheless, the previous tournament statistics once again prove that you are also against the North Africans as an underdog into the game. Panama scored only 4 shots in 180 minutes, leaving teams like Costa Rica and Iran behind. The fact that you also have the most physical damage, proven only 91 won duels in the previous group matches. In this statistic so far only the upcoming opponent from Tunisia was weaker. Accordingly, the Gomez Elf on Thursday could well put on body-oriented game, which raises the question of how long this can be maintained. The fact is: Panama belongs to those teams of this World Cup, which have collected the most yellow cards so far. So Armando Cooper and Michael Murillo – both have already been warned twice – on Thursday are not available, also four other squad players have already received a warning. In particular, the failure of Murillo hurts in our view, but the full-back belonged so far the most positive appearances in the Panamanian squad.
Tunisia
For Tunisia, the World Cup in Russia is already finished after 2 games. Because: The North Africans hold like opponents Panama after 2 games at any single point and can thus reach third place in the best case. This must also be the declared goal of the Tunisians. Just a look at the squad is enough to recognize the role of favorites of the team of Nabil Maoul. Players like captain Wabbi Khazri or Naim Sliti simply have the quality to challenge a team like Panama. However, you have to make a personal staffing one or the other smear: goalkeeper Mouez Hassen fails with a shoulder injury, also the center-back Dylan Bronn and Syam Ben Youssef are at least questionable. However, as I said, it is unlikely that Panama will have many opportunities on Thursday. Tunisia have a 2-1 defeat to England after 2 games and a 2-5 win over Belgium. Accordingly, one can see the North Africans an increase in the offensive. The goal against England came from a lucky penalty, while Belgium beat a free-kick to make it 2-1, Khazri’s 2-5 stoppage time. Especially over the wings, we see much more potential in Tunisia, if you once again the breakdowns in Panama in memory calls, especially the left attack side could provide momentum. That offensive you have qualities, so far show 6 shots in 180 minutes, with Portugal or Costa Rica are quite well-known opponents behind. Problems are, however, as mentioned in terms of tackling tie down, Tunisia has been able to decide only 84 tackles. However, it is also a fact that Tunisia can rely on a secure support despite the loss of the home goalkeeper. Farouk Ben Mustafa has been able to defuse 9 shots on his box, equaling Denmark’s Kasper Schmeichel on rank 2, only Mexico’s Ochoa was even more successful than the Tunisian goalkeeper. Strengths are to be expected with Tunesien also with high balls, as not least the duel with Belgium showed. Incidentally, the North Africans have never played against Panama in their association history. The defeat against the Central Europeans was already the 3rd in this calendar year, in which only 2 wins. Balance sheets, which one wants to improve on Thursday.
