Sao Tome and Principe
On March 24, 2025, the National Complex in Monrovia will host a World Cup qualification matchday 6 clash between Liberia and Sao Tome and Principe. There are doubts that many goals will be scored in this match.
Preview
For both teams, the upcoming match will be the last in this international break. Both Liberia and Sao Tome simultaneously suffered defeats in their previous encounters.
Liberia lost at home to Tunisia with a score of 0:1. Notably, throughout the entire match, both teams managed only one shot—not just on target, but overall—and it was that shot that decided the match.
Overall, Liberia's form leaves much to be desired. The team hasn't won in four matches, drawing once and losing three times during this period.
Sao Tome lost their last match away to Equatorial Guinea with a score of 0:2. This game also featured extremely modest statistics—both teams made only two shots throughout the match, and both were goals.
Sao Tome hasn't had a victory for a long time—the team's last win dates back to 2022. Since then, they've played 14 matches, losing 10 of them.
Probable lineups
- Liberia: Songo, Pabai, Dweh, Balde, Laomie, Ledlum, Dorley, Thea, Tweh, Farkarlun, Kosiya
- Sao Tome: Mateus, Viegas, D'Almeida, Pequeno, Ramos, Fernandes, Lumungo, Recife, Pires, Andrade, Viete
Match facts and H2H
- Liberia has failed to score at home only once in their last 5 matches.
- According to statistics, since 2012, Sao Tome has kept only one clean sheet in away matches.
- In 5 played rounds, Sao Tome has scored only one goal while conceding 12.

Prediction
Liberia is considered the clear favorite for the upcoming match—bookmakers rate their victory at odds of 1.3. However, both teams face significant difficulties in creating dangerous chances, let alone converting them. Given this statistic, the most logical option seems to be a bet on under 2.5 goals in the match with odds of 1.76.
