China vs Haiti Predictions, Odds & Sports Betting Tips 07/28/2023

It’s all to play for when China take on Haiti in a pivotal Group D clash on Friday. After both sides suffered narrow defeats on gameday one, three points are essential here if either team wishes to progress.

Our betting bonus tip for this important game looks at the recent form of both sides. Our aim is to help you take advantage of the best football betting odds for the game.

China are a tricky team for sports betting fans to back at the minute. Defeat to Denmark on gameday one means they have won just one of their last five games. Despite all that, the Chinese do still sit 14th in the FIFA rankings, largely thanks to their triumph at the 2022 Asian Cup.

The performance against the Danes did little to suggest that a change in fortunes was imminent. With a tough game against England still to come, anything less than three points here is likely to be terminal to Chinese hopes of progress.

Haiti were expected to be an afterthought in Group D, but their display in the 1-0 defeat to England suggested they could have an impact in the final shakeup. They are still heavy underdogs to get anything from this game, but if they can replicate their gameday one performance, they cannot be discounted.

Despite that encouraging display, Haiti are now on a five game losing run and have scored just five goals across those games. They need a drastic change in fortunes to ensure their debut World Cup campaign does not end at the first hurdle.

Unsurprisingly, China and Haiti have never played each other before. In terms of World Cup experience, China hold a huge advantage. This is Haiti’s first ever experience of the tournament, whilst China have played in every competition. Their best ever result was in 1999, when they finished runners up.

As the two sides have never met, our statistical highlight for the game looks at both sides' recent form. It is designed to help you find the betting odds for the game.

The leading betting apps have China as 4/6 favourites for the game. If you think Haiti can spring a surprise, you can back them at odds of 19/4, whilst the draw is best priced at 14/5.

We’re going out on a limb here and predicting Haiti to cause a shock. China have been extremely underwhelming in recent games, and despite Haiti’s long losing run, they did enough against England to suggest things will change.

It’s probably a bit too much of a stretch to suggest Haiti could win, but we really like their chances of coming away with a point. Odds of 14/5 on a draw seem very attractive, and if you are feeling even more adventurous, the 9/1 on a 0-0 draw holds some appeal.
