Liberia vs Libya Prediction: A draw is a possible outcome

This Saturday, a friendly encounter between Liberia and Libya will take place at TBC (Morocco). Both teams are coming into this encounter having failed to win any of their previous four matches. Let's get right down to business and get some betting lines up and running.

In a friendly match played in Ghana one month ago, Liberia was defeated by Ghana by a score of 3-1. In the second half, there were a total of four goals scored after the first half ended in a goalless draw. The Black Stars' goals were scored by Ernest Nuamah, Mohammed Kudus, and Jordan Ayew, while the White Stars' goal was scored by Divine Teah in injury time. The Lone Stars have been knocked out of the running for an AFCON qualifying spot. However, they will finish off their qualification campaign with a trip to Morocco that was rescheduled for the following week.

After playing Equatorial Guinea to a 1-1 draw at home in a 2023 AFCON qualifier earlier this month, Libya are coming off of a disappointing performance, as it was not enough to give them a chance into the AFCON main tournament. Both teams were able to go away with a point thanks to second-half goals scored by Joseph Elo and Husain Taqtaq. Libya is another team that was unable to qualify for the AFCON and instead has two friendlies scheduled for this month. They will play another friendly against Niger the week after that, and then they will begin qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup against Eswatini and Cameroon in November.

This will be the third time that these two teams go head-to-head against one another; before, both teams had triumphed once. Their most recent match, which took place in June 2021 and was a friendly, was won by Liberia by a score of 1-0. At least three goals have been scored in six of Liberia's last seven matches, including the last four of those matches. In their last nine matches, Libya has only one victory, while they have seven losses.

Both teams came up short in their bids to reach the AFCON finals and will utilize this match as a way to get ready for the upcoming qualifying rounds for the FIFA World Cup. Both teams have failed to win a majority of their contests over the past few weeks, tasting defeat in seven of their last nine matches combined. When facing teams with a higher level, Liberia's games have a tendency to have high scoring totals, but Libya may not be able to capitalize on the opportunities that are presented to them. In spite of the fact that either team has a chance to win, it is more likely that the game will end in a tie with few goals scored.
