Papua New Guinea played actively last year recording four victories, three draws and three defeats in 10 played games. This season the side has played only one match resulted in its lost to Tahiti almost a week ago and in order not to lose its chances to promote from the group it needs only winning their upcoming away game.
Tahiti and Papua New Guinea head-to-heads consist of two matches resulted in 2:2 draw last year and the Tahitians’ triumph a week ago. I believe that having won on the road Tahiti side has to win at home as well which will allow it to qualify from the group and continue its run for representing Oceania at the 2018 FIFA World Cup final stage. Tahiti’s only real rival in Oceania is New Zealand and the rest of the teams are weaker.
Prediction for the match: Tahiti to win.
