Tunisia vs Australia Prediction and Betting Tips | November 26th 2022

Tunisia will square off against Australia at the Al Janoub Stadium in their second group-stage game of the 2022 FIFA World Cup on Saturday.

Tunisia got their campaign underway with a solid performance in their goalless draw against Denmark on Tuesday. Australia met reigning champions France in their campaign opener on the same day.

While Australia took a shock lead in that game through Craig Goodwin's ninth-minute goal, the 2018 champions overturned the deficit with ease to record a 4-1 win.

Adrien Rabiot equalized for France while Olivier Giroud bagged a brace and Kylian Mbappe also scored in the second half.

This will be the second and probably the most important game in the group stage for both teams. Tunisia have a point to their name and a win in this match will help them take a big step towards a second-place finish in Group H if France beat Denmark in their game on Saturday.

Tunisia play France next and might struggle to secure a win against the European giants. This is a do-or-die game for Australia as failure to secure a win here will virtually guarantee their elimination from the competition.

Tunisia vs Australia Prediction

The Eagles of Carthage held their own against Denmark and their defensive solidity stood out in their goalless draw. They have conceded just two goals in their last 10 games across all competitions and we expect them to put in a solid defensive display in this match.

Wahbi Khazri was an unused substitute in that draw and might get the nod to start here to provide some spark in the final third.

Australia have been slightly inconsistent in their recent games and, after taking the lead against France, they crumbled under pressure and ended up conceding four goals.

This might be a tricky match for both sides but, given Tunisia's defensive prowess, we back them to eke out a narrow win and the odds of a clean sheet also look good.

Prediction: Tunisia 1-0 Australia
