Cyprus v Georgia Betting Tips [17 June 2023]

Cyprus will welcome Georgia on Match Day 2 of the Euro 2024 qualifiers this Saturday. The two nations are a point apart in Group A, Georgia third with a point and Cyprus are bottom. Hosts Cyprus are coming from a 2-2 draw with Armenia in an international friendly. They have no win in their last two matches and only one in five. Temur Ketsbaia’s side has had a smooth run coming into this game, with three losses in five. They have also conceded at least two goals in each of the five matches, while failing to score in two. Four of their last five matches have had over 2.5 goals and Cyprus have scored six times in five matches. Both teams have scored in three of their last five matches.

Georgia drew 1-1 with Norway in their last outing. A second half goal from Georges Mikautadze secured the point for the visitors. They will be hoping to go one better here. The last time these two sides faced off, Georgia won 1-0; that was in 2017. Though playing away, they will still be the favorites in this game. Georgia have suffered just one loss in the last 14 matches. They have 10 wins in that run, and have only failed to score once in the last five matches. Managed by Willy Sagnol, Georgia haven't picked much about defensive discipline from the former French international. They have just one clean sheet in five matches, but they’ve scored two or more in three of the five games. Away from home, Georgia have posted three wins in the last four matches.

Cyprus come into this game struggling, and much of their recent woes are down to their defensive frailties. They’ve conceded two or more in each of the last five matches. Here they face a side that has scored two or more three times in five matches. Both these sides have been in high scoring games and we expect the same here too. Our prediction for Cyprus v Georgia is for the game to produce over 2.5 goals.
